Tuareg


Explanation:
In Italian the nomadic population living in the Sahara region is called 'beduini' or 'berberi' or 'Tuareg'.

I would advice the use of Tuareg. which is preferable in most cases to the other popular names.

disagree  Ilde Grimaldi: Targui non l'ho mai sentito. La didascalia Tuareg o "uomini blu" invece mi piacerebbe
