Etymology


An unverified theory[8] is that the former name of the city Hisn-Mansur derives from the name of the Umayyad Emir Mansur ben Djawana who was killed by Al-Mansur in 758.[9] Because of the difficulty among the locals in pronouncing Hisn-Mansur, the corruption Semsur emerged.[10]

Various unverifiable theories exist for the name.[10]
