Can someone point me in the direction of datasets with more Berber samples so I can merge them with mine

I’m looking for Berber samples etc shilha and Kabyle samples if possible

The best Berber-related samples for the moment I found in HO dataset.

See for example: v52.2_HO_public dataset.
There are some from Beni Mellal Morocco and few other from Morocco , which I assume are Berber-related.

Unfortunately the most recent North-African Berber-related are more protected. Only the registered research organizations can get access to those.
I have a special interest for such samples, however no access for now.
If you like to share your data with me PM to me.
BTW many of North Africans now have a different profile, which is more arab-related. The Berber profile is very different from the arabs. It would be great to have more real Berber samples.
