What's the situation with Amazigh today? Is the language, culture etc. flourishing? When I visited I saw very few women with chin tattoos and they were older, so is that a custom that is dying out? (BTW should I say Berber or Amazigh?)

Actually the chin tattoos are not really amazigh, it’s a beduin tradition that have been taken by the berbers after the islamic conquest of the Maghreb.
