The Hyayna or Hyaynas (Arabic: حياينة‎) is a Moroccan tribal confederation of Arab-Berber descent. The confederation is composed of three tribes : Oulad Amrane, Ouled Aliane and Ouled Riab. Spanish historian Luis del Marmol Carvajal, who traveled the country in the mid-sixteenth century (precisely in 1540), spoke of a rich agricultural tribe which had 25 villages and provided four thousand combatants to the Saadi dynasty.
