We recently went to check out one of the many Bedouin villages in Israel to learn a little bit about them. Bedouins are traditionally a nomadic Arab group. Bedouin society has been described as "a world without time." They live in their own tribal villages in the Negev desert, far from the lights of Tel Aviv. In the past they engaged primarily in nomadic herding and agriculture. Scarcity of water and pastoral land required them to move constantly. However, as the world around them has changed, they have for the most part been forced to abandon their nomadic lifestyle. As the younger generations of Bedouins move out of their villages for education and better jobs their traditional way of life is fading away.
