Under al-Mansur, the son of Nasir ibn Alnas (1062-1088) the decline of the Hammadid kingdom began. Although he managed to conquer [[Algeria]] from the [[Almoravids]] with [[Bedouin]] assistance, he was unable to keep the unruly Bedouin tribes under control. The long-term security of roads and trade routes was no longer possible, to the increasing detriment of trade and agriculture - part of the harvest had to be given up to the Bedouin. |

The lack of security inland led to an increase in the importance of sea trade, making the Mediterranean port of [[Bejaia]] the most important economic centre in the kingdom at the expense of the old capital [[Qalaat Beni Hammad]]. There was a steady migration of people from Al-Qa'la to Bejaia. To contemporaries, the luxury of the Hammadids and the spiritual life of the kingdom were at their most evident in Bejaia. |

Biography
[edit]Al-Mansur ibn al-Nasir succeeded his father Nasir ibn Alnas in 1088.[1] In 1090, he left the Kal'a (Beni Hammad Fort), the traditional capital of the Hammadids, to settle in Béjaïa (Bougie) with his troops and his court,[2] which he considered less accessible to the Nomads.[1] He left the region because of the destruction caused by the arrival of the Banu Hilal.[2] His father had already prepared this transfer by transforming a fishing port into a city he calls An-Nasiriya but which was to assume the name of Bougie,[1] the name of a tribe that inhabited this region.[2] Al-Mansur built public buildings, palaces, a water distribution network and gardens in Bejaia.[3] The Hammadid kingdom thus abandoned its nomadic origins and became sedentary.[3] The Kal'a was not completely abandoned by al-Mansur and he even embellished it with a number of palaces.[1] The Hammadids therefore had two capitals joined by a royal road at this time.[4]
