In 430, the tribes of Ouarsenis/Hodna established a kingdom with its capital at the Roman city of "Timgarta," which will be later named "Tihert" (today called Tiaret). The Kingdom was located in central Algeria. Ortayas was one of its monarchs.{{Cite book|last=Bacha|first=Dmoh|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6e6YDwAAQBAJ|title=Algerie Culture Identite: Maghreb Algerie Maroc Tunisie|date=2019-04-23|publisher=Illindi Publishing|isbn=978-1-0955-9126-0|location=|pages=37|language=fr}}
