Boujeloud, is a half-man half-goat, who originally in Jahejouka's legend, gave the gift of music to a young shepherd from the village called Attar. In tandem with the gift of music came fertility for the crops. In return for these gifts Boujeloud demanded that he be given a wife.
Each year Boujeloud returns to the village coming down from the mountain to steal a girl from the village to be his young bride. Distracted by the wild playing of the musicians and dancing boys who masquerade as girls he returns to his cave empty handed and exhausted next morning. Normality returns to the village again and fertility is assured for another year.
