The map
About this Ṭinṭâne map poster
Ṭinṭâne lies in the Hodh El Gharbi region of southern Mauritania, on the Route de l'Espoir, the long highway that links Nouakchott with the east of the country. From above, the town reads as a loose grid of sandy streets and walled compounds spread along and back from the road, set in a wide landscape of dunes, scrub and seasonal watercourses.
The land here is flat to gently undulating, and in the rainy season low ground can hold water for weeks. That relationship with water has shaped the town's recent history: in 2007 heavy rains and flooding destroyed a large part of Ṭinṭâne, which then had to be rebuilt. On a map, the town is best read alongside the low ground and drainage lines around it.
Like other towns along the highway, it is a meeting point for travellers and for herders and farmers from the surrounding area. A Ṭinṭâne map poster reduces its setting to clean lines: the straight road, the gridded compounds, and the soft, open ground of the Sahel stretching away in every direction.

Compound grid
Streets form a loose, open grid between walled family compounds, a pattern typical of Sahelian towns that looks strikingly graphic in black and white.
Low ground and wadis
Shallow depressions and seasonal watercourses around the town fill after heavy rain, shaping where people build and adding soft, irregular forms to the map.

Why Ṭinṭâne
A map that means something
