UAE - Images of Arabia, Bedouin Village



The Bedouin people of the United Arab Emirates have a rich history. They are highly hospitable and follow many traditions. In fact, the Bedouin culture is one of the founding pillars of the UAE society and plays an integral part in the Emirati national identity.
The Bedouin society historically is a desert dwelling semi-nomadic Arab ethnic group, the Bedouin society is divided up into tribes and there is a strong honor system among the people who are extremely loyal, first to their immediate families, then their extended families and finally to their country. Each Bedouin tribe is lead by a Sheikh and all the members of the tribe usually have a common ancestor. There are Bedouin tribes in several of the Middle Eastern countries as well as the UAE."
