Believe it or not, the standard Latin translation for "berber" is Barbarus... but that is of course frought with problems, e.g. Linguae Barbaricae won't cut it. So Libyca is a decent solution. It shoudl probably be mentioned that Numidian was apparently in this family. --Iustinus 17:20 dec 16, 2004 (UTC)
What about some equivalent of "Tamazight", a PC term for them used in recent years? The Latin equivalent of the ethnonym "Amazigh" was "Mazices", so I imagine the language would be "Mazicensis" or "Mazicana"? - Mustafaa 01:20 dec 17, 2004 (UTC)
Sounds good to me! Maxyes, by the way, are also generally considered to be an earlier incarnation of the same ethnonym, which originally seems to have meant "noblemen" or "free men", as its cognate still does among the Tuareg. Could be an interesting article... - Mustafaa 17:12 dec 20, 2004 (UTC)
