The Bartire (Somali: Bartirre, Arabic: بارتري), (or Barre Jidwaaq Absame) are a Somali sub clan, part of the major Absame branch, which belongs to the Darod clan, one of the largest Somali tribe-families.

Overview

Members of the Bartire clan primarily inhabit the Somali Region of Ethiopia’s fertile and agricultural land around the city of Jigjiga, Shabelay- stretching to the lower Fafan along with The Abaskuul & Yabaree, which whom they make up Jidwaaq. They also settle the upper parts of the Jarar Valley and to the South in Somalia’s Jubba region from Xagar, Bu'aale to Kismayo . They also share borders with the Ogaden and Habar Awal clans.

History

Habr Maqdi

The Habr Maqdi was a Somali confederation made up of the sub clans Bartire and Yabarre, now part of the Jidwaaq under the Darod Absame. They played a key role in the Ethiopian-Adal War, known for their large army and loyalty to Imam Ahmed.

The Habar Maqdi historically lived in Harar and Jigjiga’s surrounding areas, it is well-documented that the Bartire sub-clan of the Habar Maqdi controlled the trade and caravan route to Berbera. The British explorer, scholar, and military officer Richard Burton , renowned for his African travels, highlighted the Bartire clan's longstanding connections with the Emirs of Harar.

Richard Burton writes

The Berteri, who occupy the Gurays Range, south of, and limitrophe to, the Gallas, and thence extend eastward to the Jigjiga hills, are estimated at 3000 shields. Whilst other animals have indigenous names, the horse throughout the) Of Darud origin, they own allegiance to the Gerad Hirsi, and were, when I visited the country, on bad terms with the Girhi.

During the Conquest of Abyssinia, the sub-clans of the Habar Maqdi frequently divided into two military factions. Ahmed Girri bin Hussein led the Yabarre sub-clan, while the Bartire sub-clan was commanded by a Malassay chief named Garad Dhaweyd.
