The Tekna (Arabic: تكنة) is a semi-nomadic[1] Sahrawi tribal confederation of mixed Arab[2] and Lamta Sanhaja Berber origins.[1][3][4] Its constituents today inhabit southern Morocco, northern Western Sahara and western Algeria, but traditionally with wider migration routes. Nowadays, its population is estimated to be around 709,000.[citation needed]
