2. Berber Traditions: The indigenous Berber people of Tunisia have a long history of mask-making and use, often for spiritual and ceremonial purposes.
3. Islamic Influence: With the arrival of Islam in Tunisia, masks became less prominent in religious rituals but continued to be used in cultural and theatrical contexts.
4. Ottoman Era: During the Ottoman rule in Tunisia (1574-1918), masks were used in theater and performance, often influenced by Turkish and Arab traditions.
5. African and Mediterranean Influences: Tunisia's strategic location at the crossroads of Africa, Europe, and the Middle East has led to a blending of mask-making traditions, with influences from various cultures.
