Nomadic tribes were used by governments to facilitate the delivery of goods along the Silk Road, primarily because they were used to a life "on the go" and their animals, usually camels, were hardy enough to survive days without water.

Who lives in a dowar?

Well, darling, a dowar is actually a traditional tent used by nomadic tribes in the Middle East, so unless you're chatting with a Bedouin, I highly doubt anyone lives in a dowar. But hey, if you're feeling adventurous and fancy a change of scenery, why not pitch a dowar in your backyard and live your best nomadic life? Just don't forget the sunscreen and bug spray, honey.

What does it mean when a tribe is nomadic?

Nomadic people do not live in the same place year round. Instead of setting down roots, they tend to move from place to place whenever the situation warrants it. For example, many North American Indian tribes lived nomadic lifestyles, following the large game they hunted for food and clothing. If they failed to do so, the entire tribe could starve. In man's early history, everyone was nomadic, hunting and gathering to survive. Somewhere along the way, man figured out how to domesticate animals and grow crops. Only then were the first towns and cities formed, allowing some of us to abandon the nomadic lifestyle.

Why did the nomadic native Americans move place too place?

As far as my People, the Ojibwé, we were not Nomadic in the sense of the definition. We had a home. Many crops would not grow where we called home, so we made long pilgrimages all along the Eastern United States and Canada to where the crops grew. When the harvest season was done, we travelled back home.Since all of the other Tribes did the same, we all played a game like La Crosse to determine which Tribes got what percentage of the crops. To prevent wars, no Tribe left empty handed.
