Tuareg warriors

The Tuaregs, who call themselves the Kel Tamajeq (in Berber: ⴾⵍⵜⵎⴰⵣⵗⵜ Kel Tamajeq) are a Berber ethnic group, divided into several confederations and tribes, these Berbers (Amazighs in Berber) of the central Sahara and its borders (Algeria, Libya, Niger, Mali, Mauritania, Chad, and far north Burkina Faso). They speak a Berber language, Tamajeq, and use an alphabet called tifinagh (pronounced in French tifinar). They occupy the largest Berber-speaking region.
