There are many more than 5 important traditions because they are all very important. it is like the food chain:if one goes, another goes because of it and another and another. Because they are all very important, I will tell you which I think are fading away the quickest. These are:
-Berber Food
-Berber Weaving
-Berber Jewelry
-Berber Farming
-Berber Weddings
Do Berber woman wear a different style of Berber jewelry if they are rich and are tattoos only for rich people?
Berber woman are rich or poor depending on their heritage, and that reflects on the jewelry they wear. The more jewelry a Berber woman wears, the wealthier she is. Also the bigger the jewelry the more important the event. Even more the more wealthy a person, the more fine the designs on the jewelry is.
Are there different traditions for each tribe?
Of course the traditions vary from tribe to tribe, but mostly they stay the same, but in the same traditions, the details vary. For example, the tribe all have jewelry, and carpets, and clothing, but there are different designs in different tribes. So yes and no the traditions don't vary, but the inside of the tradition varies.
What is the most important tradition among Berber villages?
All the traditions are very important,so I can not say which is the best. For example: what would you wear if there were no clothes, what would you eat with no food, what would you farm with no way to farm?... These are questions that you should think about before asking this question. Some would say they would wear rags but if everyone wears rags, it would be a tradition then. Also if everyone ate something it would have to very depending on their surroundings, and that would become a tradition too.
I liked your presentation very much you had a long presentation with lots of information.

Asmaa I really liked your presentation by far and when you showed us the tools for the kitchen, when you made the tea, and when you gave us the couscous. It is really interesting to learn about the traditions.
