Tifelt (Arabic: تيفلت) is a town in northwestern Morocco, west of Khemisset and east of Rabat.The Times Atlas of the World, Eighth comprehensive edition, Random House (1990) Tifelt is in a region of Morocco that is rich with ancient history, including settlements by Berbers, Phoenicians and Romans during the first millennium BC. The nearest such major settlements are in Rabat and Volubilis.[http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=14906 C.Michael Hogan, Volubilis, Megalithic Portal, ed. A. Burnham (2007)] Tifelt is between the cities of Rabat and Khemisset

Tifelt is a town that was served by workers of the United States Peace Corps until the 9/11 attacks on the U.S.[https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9D0CE4D8163CF930A35750C0A967958260 New York Times, retrieved February 15, 2008] The Peace Corps workers had been assisting local women in a beekeeping cooperative, until the U.S. government evacuated the Peace Corps personnel for concerns over their safety. Peace Corps workers have since returned and now focus primarily on job skills workshops and English language classes.[http://www.fallingrain.com/world/MO/49/Tiflet.html Tiflet].
