Traditional Berber religion
Traditional Berber religion is the ancient and native set of beliefs and deities developed by the Berber people in their historical land of North Africa. Many of Berber ancient beliefs were developed locally while some other ones were imported or influenced over time by contact from other African mythology such as the Egyptian religion along with external forces from Phoenician mythology, Judaism, Iberian mythology, and the Hellenistic religion during antiquity. The most recent influence came from Islam, and Arab mythology, during the medieval period. Some of the Berber ancient beliefs still exist today subtly within the Berber popular culture and tradition.
==Funerary practices==
Archaeological research on pre-historic tombs in Northwestern Africa shows that the bodies of the dead were painted with red ochre. While this practice was known to the Ibero-Maurussians, this culture seems to have been primarily a Capsian culture. The dead were also sometimes buried with shells of ostrich eggs, jewelry, and weapons. Bodies were usually buried in a fetal position.〔Ouachi, Moustapha. “The Berbers and the death.” ''El-Haraka''〕
Unlike the majority of mainland Berbers, the Guanches mummified the dead. Additionally, Fabrizio Mori discovered a Libyan mummy older than any comparable Ancient Egyptian mummy in 1958.〔(The mystery of the Black Mummy )〕
