Abstract

With reference to the demographic composition of the sons of the Southern Red Sea Triangle, the sons of Halayeb, Shalateen and Abu Ramad, we find that they are formed from the “Beja” tribe, which represents 60% of the population, which includes:
* Al-Bashariya tribe: whose branches extend from Egypt to southern Eritrea, and they belong to “Bashar bin Kahil.” The tribe is divided into two main branches, namely Bashar “Umm Naji” spread in Sudan in Halayeb, and Bashar “Umm Ali” who live in Shalateen.
* Al-Ababda tribe: representing 35% of the population, the oldest African peoples whose lineage goes back to "Kush ibn Ham" and extends from Sinai to northern Sudan in the area between the Red Sea and the Nile River.
*The Al-Rashaida tribe: They represent, with a mixture of the remaining 5% of the tribes, and their lineage goes back to the “Bani Abs bin Adnan” tribe, which came to Egypt more than 200 years ago from the Arabian Peninsula through Sudan, and that Arab tribe also mixed with the “Beja” tribe In treatment and kinship.
