Английская Википедия:Hedareb people
Шаблон:Infobox ethnic group The Hedareb or T'bdawe[note 1] are a Cushitic ethnic group native to northwestern Eritrea.[1] They are a subgroup of the Beja.[2] They are more diverse than the other Eritrean ethicities; one subgroup speaks the traditional Beja language, which belongs to the Cushitic branch of the Afro-Asiatic family, while another is more closely related to Sudanese Hadendoa. They are among the least-researched groups in Eritrea.[3]
The Hedareb people live in northwestern Eritrea and extend as far as the borders with east Sudan.[4] Nomadic or semi-nomadic pastoralists, they typically migrate seasonally with their herds of camels, goats and sheep.[1]
Language
The Hedareb speak the Beja language or Tigre language as a mother tongue.[4] In addition to their variety of Beja, known as Hedareb or T’badwe, most Hedareb people also speak at least one other language, typically for a larger group Tigre, and for a small group Arabic as well.[5]
Society
Hedareb society is hierarchical, and is traditionally organized into clans and subclans.[4] Hedarebs are a Muslim group,[3] and most are Sunni Muslims.[1] Marriages are typically arranged to maximize alliances between extended families. It is customary for the groom's family to pay a bride price of five to twelve goats, and a varying amount of money,[6] or as much as 70 camels.[7]
Sociologist Abdulkader Saleh Mohammad writes that the Hedareb have been excluded from state conceptions of Eritrean nationhood, and have become a marginalized group with many members who do not feel connected to the Eritrean nation-state.[8]
Laws
As Muslim people, the Hedareb follow Sharia law in most matters.[3]
In the nineteenth century, blood feuds marked by chains of revenge killings existed among Hedareb groups; unlike those among neighboring groups, they were rarely resolved by the payment of blood money, possibly because the Hedareb had fewer trading practices.[3] Also distinctively, killing one's wife was traditionally punished by death, while killing one's children went unpunished.[3] Rape of a noblewoman by a serf was punishable by death, while rape of serfs by nobles was tolerated.[3]
