Contribution au vocabularie et à la chrestomathie spécifique au bain maure à Tlemcen et dans le hawz

Abstract EN

The hammam is one of the ritual facilities of the medina.

this private service establishment of a public nature is endowed with a number of ritual objects whose respective names are threatened with disappearance.

the replacement of the name of certain objects by other similar ones was the source of the loss of their old names.

moreover, a few words have now fallen into disuse.

as part of the safeguarding of the memory of Tlemcen, a former princely city, we have attempted to save the vocabulary relating to the structure of the Moorish bath, the staff and the trousseau.
