The Tuareg are an ancient African population which mated with the Vandals to form the present Berber population.

[IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-33-24.png[/IMG] Cheikh Anta Diop, African Origin of Civilization Diop also says there are no berbers in Egypt. Yet the Siwa are berbers and they live in Egypt [URL=http://www.ephotobay.com/share/picture-37-19.html] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-37-19.png[/IMG][/URL] Cheikh Anta Diop, African Origin of Civilization [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d7/Tuareg_area.png[/IMG] [b]Tuareg territory[/b] Originally posted by Clyde Winters: This map represents the Tuareg region. The Tuareg did not come from the Fezzan, they originated in the East. According to Tuareg tradition they originated in the Tafilalt or Tafilet (Arabic: تافيلالت‎) an important oasis of the Moroccan Sahara, and migrated from there to the Fezzan. [/QUOTE]Clyde Morroco is West of the Fezzan East of the Fezzan is more of Libya and Egypt The Tuareg or another group in the region would be likely to have descended form the Garmante but you can't prove they are or are not. The Garmante don't have to speak berber in order for modern day berber speaking Tuareg to have descended from them because people can change languages. But very little is known about Garamonte language. The Romans notcied their script to have some similarities to Phoenician [/QB][/QUOTE]
