Solo in Morocco: Marrakech and Hiking the Atlas Mountains
It’s July, landing at 8 pm in Marrakech. It’s about 40 C in the evening, feels like an oven. It’s heatwave in Europe and Morocco is not that far, so I should not be surprised. I was picked up from the airport for a 15 mins drive to the Riad. I was staying not far from the Palace. At first sight, Marrakech is beautiful city with impressive architecture. A bit messy too – passing by busy streets…

In the Privacy of the Tuaregs
Photos by Ferhat Bouda, 2016.
Between the Sahara and the Sahel, around the cities of Agadez and Abalak, in central Niger, live Tuareg tribes who have chosen to move away from cities, new technologies and assimilation. They are still semi-nomadic, but only move their camps twice a year and only a few kilometers depending on the rising waters in winter.
Livestock raising is their main source of income. Since the 1960s, however, many men forced to leave the villages to go to work in the city and thus be able to support their families
Women, very proud, are the pillars of the tribes. Refusing polygamy, which is very widespread in the region, they are the ones who choose their husband and, at the slightest dispute, it is the man who must leave the house and leave the children and cattle to the woman. In many ways, it appears to be a matriarchal society, but decision-making remains in the hands of men.
Several distinctive signs give Tuareg society its authenticity, such as its habits and customs, its arts, its fashions and other traditional weapons.
Remaining nevertheless the linguistic organ which structures the culture of the Tuareg population. This organ is Berber and makes it an Amazigh entity in its own right.

The Meaning
Any question about their symbolism put to the users generally elicits only vague answers. Some attribute to it a function of "grigri" or “reserve of wealth". The ethnologists Germaine Dieterlen and Ziedonis Ligers spotted a situation where the father gave the jewel to his son in age of virility, marriage and nomadism, saying to him: "My son, I give you the four directions of the world, because we do not know where you will go to die".[6]
According to one Tuareg elder narration, a young nomadic warrior wanted to declare his love to the young girl of his heart, the latter being locked up at home and therefore inaccessible to his messages. The village blacksmith then had a very important place in Tuareg society. As such, the blacksmith had the right to enter the houses of all the families with whom he traded with. The young man then had a jewel forged which combines the two syllables of the Tamashek word " T (a) R (a)" ("tara" meaning " love" and spelled "ⵜⵔ" in the Tifinagh alphabet.) and entrusted the blacksmith with the mission of transmitting the message of love to his beloved in the greatest discretion.[7]
