TWO OULED NAILS IN CHARACTERISTIC GARB 



The Ouled Nails are a tribe of desert-Arabs living in Algeria, whose girls resort to the cities to 

 earn money by dancing. As they appear unveiled and bedecked in jewels, they are outside the pale of 

 respectable women. The goldpieces which form their headdress make up their dowry when thev return 

 to their tribe to get married.
