Who were the Moors?

The term “Moor” has been used in literature, art, and history books for centuries, but it doesn’t actually describe a specific ethnicity or race

Berber people are the indigenous peoples of North Africa west of the Nile Valley. Historically Berbers have been variously known, for instance as Libyans by the ancient Greeks, as Numidians and Mauri by the Romans, and as Moors by medieval and early modern Europeans.
