A long mountain range in northern Africa and eastern Algeria. It is 800 km long, 50-60 km wide, and has an average elevation of 1,000 m, with the highest peak at 2,335 m. In Tuareg, it means "water-rich plateau." It is now a completely dry, rugged mountain range, and tens of thousands of prehistoric rock paintings remain. The main ruins are Sefar, Tan Zoumaïtak, Tin Abotéka, Tamrit, Oued Djérat, Jabbaren, and In Aouanrhat.
