Amazigh (Berber) people of the Sahara desert with a nomadic pastoralist lifestyle
The Tuareg Amazighs are Berber people who have traditionally lived as nomadic herders across the Sahara Desert, moving with their livestock to find water and grazing land. They matter because they represent a distinct cultural and ethnic group with their own language and way of life in one of the world's harshest environments, and their historical presence and practices have shaped the societies and trade networks of North and West Africa.

The Tuareg people or the Tuaregs are a Berber ethnic group. They are traditionally nomadic pastoralists who principally inhabit the Sahara in an area stretching from southwestern Libya to southern Algeria, Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso, and as far as northern Nigeria, with smaller communities in Chad and Sudan known as the Kinnin. Their population is estimated to be 4 to 5 million worldwide.
The Tuareg speak the Tuareg languages, which include Tamasheq, Tamahaq, Tamajeq and Tawellemmet, all of which belong to the Berber branch of the Afroasiatic family.
