Tikhamin means "small tents" in Berber, a word used by the inhabitants of the Middle Atlas from which this motif originates to designate the chevrons. Several researchers, semiologists, archaeologists, anthropologists have studied the meaning of the Berber symbols found on the carpets. One of the conclusions leads to the statement that these symbols are a living heritage of prehistoric symbols and that the chevron in particular represents the intimate female.
