Madanle were an ancient Somali tribe that occupied the Bay region. They were an ally of the Ajuran clan and were part of their kingdom. After the collapse of Ajuran Sultanate, the Rahanweyn clan displaced them were they migrated to the Wajir region.
Here is the map of Madanle occupying a territory and Rahanweyn expansion.
Interesting "tirri" sounds very much like dir, who also live near harar. Could also be hawiye Allahu A'lamTirri was a powerful, ancient Somali tribe occupying the half of the country including Harar uplands. The term tiir itself means pillar, so tirri means pillar people.
During this same time, another major Somali tribe, Madalle, was creating elaborate stone monuments in the far South (Jubba-Galana region: the vast land southeast of Lake Turkana to the Kismayo-Malindi coast). In addition to other complex earth works, such as flat dams, lime-stone built wells and ruined towns on the coast, the building of the Taallos is attributed to the Madalle-led ancient Somali communities in the region. Madalle literally means people of congregation, which also refers to power and hard work. Observations of bodies in cairns indicate similar burial practices indicating that they were built by same people.17 However, as they were basically intended to be funeral, they are not related to astronomical phenomena as far as can be discerned.
