Algeria has been inhabited by Berbers
(or Imazighen) since at least 10,000 BC. After 1000 BC, the Carthaginians
began establishing settlements along the coast.
The Berbers seized
the opportunity offered by the Punic Wars to become independent of
Carthage, and Berber kingdoms began to emerge, most notably Numidia.
In 200 BC, however, they were once again taken over, this time by the
Roman Republic.
When the Western Roman Empire collapsed, Berbers became
independent again in many areas, while the Vandals took control over
other parts, where they remained until expelled by the generals of
the Byzantine Emperor, Justinian I.
The Byzantine Empire then retained
a precarious grip on the east of the country until the coming of the
Arabs in the eighth century. |
