Tobou folklore
The Tobou or rock people are an African ethnic minority, dispersed among four states: Libya, Niger, Chad and Sudan. They are considered to be one of the most distinctive African
tribe, mainly due to their tradition and culture . The Tobou people more strongly resemble sub-Saharan Africans, rather than their fellow nationals to the north. Their language, Tebu, is part of the NiloSaharan language family, and their basic social unit is the elementary family, organised into clans.
Their main activities revolve around pastoralism, farming, and date cultivation
. Their hostile habitat, dire poverty, extreme living conditions and remote location
means they have a reputation for being a tough people.
