BBC: Reviving the last Pasha of Marrakech

"The Kasbah of Telouet, built not more than 100 years ago, has been crumbling into the reddish dust of the valley since 1956, the year Morocco won independence from France and T'hami el-Glaoui fell from grace with the king. He is considered a traitor to this day for siding with the French colonisers and helping to topple two sultans."
