The Imazighen (singular Amazigh), also known as the Berbers, are among the indigenous peoples of North Africa. Their myths, legends, and history extend back over 9,000 years, to the Proto‑Mediterranean cultures. They have maintained a strong sense of unity through the preservation of their distinct language and cultural traditions, which—like their land—reflect both African and Mediterranean influences.
