And here I thought Berber language and culture originated with sedentary cultivators like those of the oases and the Atlas?

And the Tuareg are indigenous Nomadic Saharan Africans speaking and writing the oldest variant of Berber languages known: Tamashek. Hardly a case for origins among "settled" populations, given this language moved from East to West across the vast Sahara. Their written language, Tifinagh is descended directly from Libyco Berber. The closest related scripts to Libyco Berber and tifinagh are Ge'ez and South Arabian. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSZGeANGgVU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prrPC27KsWQ [/QB][/QUOTE]
