%X Le Maghreb central ¨¦tait consid¨¦r¨¦ par l¡¯historiographie arabe du Haut Moyen Age comme le territoire des communaut¨¦s rurales berb¨¨res et li¨¦ souvent aux r¨¦voltes contre le pouvoir arabe de Kairouan. Mais ¨¤ partir du xe si¨¨cle, il fut int¨¦gr¨¦ ¨¤ l¡¯espace politico-¨¦conomique fatim¨©de, ce qui permettait progressivement ¨¤ la culture dominante de se r¨¦pandre en milieu rural grace ¨¤ l¡¯intervention de l¡¯autorit¨¦ politico-juridique urbaine, aux itin¨¦raires de commerce et ¨¤ la fondation de mosqu¨¦es dans les localit¨¦s rurales. Les rentes fiscales permettaient aux pouvoirs urbains de contr ler un territoire souvent confi¨¦ aux chefs locaux. The central Maghreb was considered by the Arab historiography of the medieval Age as the territory of the rural Berber communities and often bound to the revolts against the Arab rulers of Kairouan.  But starting from xe century, it was integrated into politico-economic space Fatimide, which gradually made it possible for the dominant culture to be spread in rural areas. That was possible only by the intervention of the urban politico-legal authority, with the routes of trade and the foundation of mosques in the rural localities. The tax revenues reinforced the urban authority to control a territory often entrusted to the local chiefs.
