The upper caste consists of the nobles. Below these are the marabouts or clerics, then the cattle owning Fula people. Below all these are the artisan castes, which includes the blacksmiths, potters, griots, genealogists, woodworkers, and dressmakers. They belong to castes but are not enslaved and are "free people". Then there are those castes of captive, slave or serf ancestry: the "Maccuɗo", "Rimmayɓe", "Dimaajo", and less often "Ɓaleeɓe", the Fulani equivalent of the Tuareg Ikelan known as Bouzou (Buzu)/Bella in the Hausa and Songhay languages respectively.
