Our work is part of a field of research, which has already been developed and tested and has two objectives: an overall reflection on the spontaneous architecture linked to the Berber culture in the Maghreb and the production of new surveys. The first objective concerns the theme of theMoroccans tighremt the latest chapter in a story that began over a decade ago with the cataloguing and analysis of fortified granaries of southern Tunisia. In fact, the spontaneous architecture of the Maghreb is inextricably linked to the territory and it is the physical evidence of a culture now relegated to small territorial enclaves. The intense changes that these regions have suffered in recent years represent a critical step for the management of multiculturalism in these territories and for the preservation of an extremely fragile heritage. The preservation of this architectural heritage is at the basis of the second objective. In fact this tries to describe, with very detailed surveys, often assigned to laser instruments, the quality and quantity of the elements which characterize this architecture.
