Tifinagh script

Tifinagh is an ancient writing system used by the Berber peoples of North Africa, particularly in the Sahara region. It consists of geometric symbols and characters that represent consonants and vowels, functioning as an alphabet or script for recording language. Today, Tifinagh is both a cultural symbol and an active writing system, often used in signage, cultural documentation, and educational materials to promote Berber identity. Its origins date back thousands of years, with modern versions adapted to suit contemporary needs while preserving its cultural significance.
