The Périgord noir (French pronunciation: [peʁiɡɔʁ nwaʁ], lit. 'Black Périgord'), also known as Sarladais, is a traditional natural region of France, which corresponds roughly to the southeast of the current Dordogne département, now forming the eastern part of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine région. It is centered around the town of Sarlat-la-Canéda.
