| A typical Tuareg man, wearing a turban and loose indigo-dyed
garment to protect against the fine blowing sand of the Sahara. The nomadic
ethnic group is present in many saharan countries, including Mali and southern
Tunisia. After the chanting/clapping presentation, the male Tuareg craftsmen
quickly laid out their leather and silver goods such as pouches, leather
boxes, ornamental swords, and narrow pipes, eager for a sale. |
