Young decorated camel walking alone on the beach at sunny day

In Nabeul, every Friday you can visit one of North Africa's largest markets where you can buy pretty much anything. It is an authentic and vibrant shopping experience for traditional ceramics, spices, leather goods and textiles. The name of the market is still Camel Market, but nowadays without camels. They are obviously not needed anymore.I visited the market when there were still camels as this picture shows. The name was wrong anyway, because they didn't sell camels but dromedaries. Look at this lovely mother and child couple in front.

Wadi Dhaghriout, Hawf District, Al Mahrah Governorate, Yemen: in Al Mahrah Governorate, camels—particularly the indigenous Mahri breed—play a pivotal role in the socio-economic fabric, cultural heritage, and historical narrative of the predominantly Mehri-speaking Bedouin communities, serving as essential assets for nomadic and semi-nomadic livelihoods amid arid deserts and seasonal monsoons. Renowned for their large yet slender build, small hump, exceptional speed, agility, endurance, and adaptability to harsh terrains, Mahri camels include variants like the Adiya for riding and the Eid for high milk production, enabling herders to sustain themselves through milk, meat, wool, and transport across the Empty Quarter and coastal valleys where fishing and frankincense agriculture complement pastoralism. Historically, these camels facilitated ancient trade caravans carrying frankincense from Mahra through Hadhramaut to distant markets, bolstered the Mahra Sultanate's military as swift cavalry during Islamic expansions into North Africa—where the breed evolved into Mehari or Sahel camels used by colonial forces—and underscored the region's independence, with archaeological evidence from sites like Yala and Baraqish indicating domestic camel use dating back to the 8th–7th century BC. Culturally, camels embody Mehri identity, featuring in poetry, festivals like racing events, initiation rituals for young boys learning herding and milking, and tribal codes emphasizing kinship, mediation, and Sufi-influenced Islamic values traced to ancient 'Ad peoples. In modern times, despite challenges from climate extremes, mechanization, urban migration, and external influences, camels remain vital —acting as status symbols with rising market values, buffers against conflict, and key to animal husbandry alongside goats and sheep.
