A Bedouin tent settlement,1970s. Such tents were traditionally made of lengths of sheep's wool and camel hair, supported by wooden poles and tensioned cords, which allow for a rapid set-up and take-down, and a low volume for transportation. The Israeli authorities have been gradually restricting the Bedouins' semi-nomadic, pastoralist practice of moving between seasonal pasturing areas, thus preventing their movement across the desert, which is fundamental to their culture, lifestyle, economy, and heritage.
