Berti is an extinct Saharan language formerly spoken in northern Sudan specifically in the Tagabo Hills Darfur and Kurdufan. Berti speakers migrated into the region with other Nilo-Saharan speakers such as the Masalit and Daju who were agriculturalists practicing varying degrees of animal husbandry. They settled in two separate areas: one north of Al-Fashir while the other had continued eastward settling in eastern Darfur and western Kurdufan by the nineteenth century.
