An Amazigh fibula (Tarifit: ⵜⵉⵙⵖⵏⵙⵜ, romanized: Tisɣnst, Tachelhit: ⵜⴰⵥⵕⵥⵉⵜ, romanized: Taẓṛẓit, Moroccan Arabic: تزرزيت, romanized: taẓṛẓit) is a traditional fibula or brooch with practical and symbolic importance in Amazigh cultural heritage. As a common item of the jewellery of the Berber cultures, its use was widespread among North African tribes. Its exact form could be different from one tribe to another, but essentially, it consists of a triangle beneath a ring or semicircle and a pin to hold unsewn garments together.[1][2]
