From wikipedia: "The name appears to originate from the Saharan Berber dialect word aguinaw (or agenaou) meaning "black (men)". This word in turn is possibly derived from the name of a city significant in the 11th century, in what is now western Mali, called Gana, in Arabic Ghana or Jenna and in Portuguese and later French Guinea or Jenné."

Au Maroc, les stagiaires notaires souffre de la durée indéfinie de leur « formation » sur le terrain..et d un esclavage par négrier notaire
Le stage peut s'étaler sur trois ans, comme elle peut couvrir facilement une décennie. Du fait, les ruptures de stage, par trop d'abus, ne peuvent qu'être inévitables ; elles se font souvent de manière unilatérale. Sans préavis du notaire « employant ». sans aucune indemnité ; sans aucune droit à la formation, sans remuneration.

While adopting Islam, Gnawa continued to celebrate ritual possession during rituals where they are devoted to the practice of the dances of possession and fright. This rite of possession is called Derdba (Arabic: دردبة), and proceeds the night (lila, Arabic: ليلة) that is animated jointly by a master musician (maâlem, Arabic: معلم) accompanied by his troupe. Gnawa music mixes classical Islamic Sufism with pre-Islamic African traditions, whether local or sub-Saharan.

However, the slave and gold trade with sub-Saharan African states had existed for centuries prior to al-Mansur's conquest, and it is unlikely the Gnawa community was in fact formed from one invasion but rather over centuries.

The Gnawa population is generally believed to originate from the Sahelian region of West and Central Africa, which had long and extensive trading and political ties with the Maghreb and Algeria specifically, including gold and slave trades.
Popular history particularly credits the Moroccan Sultan Ahmed Al Mansour Ad-Dahbi's conquest in 1591 of part of the Songhai Empire, in particular Timbuktu, with bringing large numbers of captives and slaves back across the Sahara to form the Gnawa.
