Pastoralism

Connected Sites: 25

Pastoralism or pastoral farming is the branch of agriculture concerned with the raising of livestock. It is animal husbandry: the care, tending and use of animals such as camels, goats, cattle, yaks, llamas, and sheep. It may have a mobile aspect, moving the herds in search of fresh pasture and water. Pastoralism is found in many variations throughout the world. (wiki) OUV of the WHS must have a direct link with pastoral farming.

The Site Of Tassili Was Primarily Occupied During The Neolithic Period By Transhumant Pastoralist Groups Whose Lifestyle Benefitted Both Humans And Livestock. The Transition To Pastoralism Following The African Humid Period During The Early Holocene Is Reflected In Tassili N'Ajjer's Archaeological Material Record, Rock Art, And Zooarchaeology. Cattle Were Herded Across Vast Areas As Early As 3000-2000 Bce, Reflecting The Origins And Spread Of Pastoralism In The Area. (Wikipedia) More Recent Paintings Show Cattle Herders, Which May Have Helped Bring About The Drier Conditions In This Part Of The Sahara. (Ab Ev - Iucn)
