The Tuareg are a nomadic people primarily found in the Sahara Desert, particularly in countries like Mali, Niger, and Algeria. Known for their distinctive blue clothing, they are skilled traders and herders, often moving with their livestock in search of water and grazing land. Their rich culture includes unique music, poetry, and intricate silver jewelry.
Traditionally, the Tuareg have a matrilineal society, where lineage is traced through women. They speak the Tamasheq language and have a deep connection to their desert environment. Despite facing challenges from modernity and political issues, the Tuareg continue to preserve their traditions and way of life.
