Ababda Bedouins are the oldest inhabitants of these parts. In looks and temperament they are similar to the Sudanese whom they regard as their closest relatives. They are slim and supple, their skin is darker than that of the Egyptians. The appearance and dress are very important to them, they are always neat and even elegant. They never complain and never quarrel among themselves. They exude an inner calm, the indispensable condition for a life of peace.
