The primary purpose of this paper is to present the concepts of time and time-reckoning of a semi-transhumant, Arabic-speaking tribe of western Morocco, the Bni Battu.' Although Bni Battu temporal concepts correspond largely with those held by urban Moroccans, I have chosen to deal primarily with the Bni Battu so that the contrast of my analysis with anthropological accounts that have been predominantly geared to simple societies is more sharply delineated. A complementary goal of this paper is to assess the theoretical implications of the shift in attention to complex and part societies for the anthropological study of time
