[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sundjata: [QB] ^^See [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=15;t=004323;p=1#000000]this thread[/URL] and the information/links cited therein. Neither do I rule out a substantial Toubou presence among the Garamante population either. It doesn't have to be an either/or situation (even though intra-population ethnic differences may sometimes lead to social stratification). [QUOTE]Tuaregs are relatively recent to the region (Western Sudan). Being the descendants of Berber speaking southern Moroccans that migrated south and southwest.[/QUOTE]Even disregarding the evidence in the above link, the Tarikhs place the Kel Tamasheq in Timbuktu as early as the 10th century so I'm not sure what you mean by "relatively recent"? Do you have any more information (texts, references, etc) about their being derived from Morocco? [QUOTE]Tuaregs are also only found along the Algerian border of Libya.[/QUOTE]The Tuareg have always been movers and shakers, so granted that this is true, I'm not sure it's of any consequence.
