In this paper, we describe the first version of a database that contains handwritten Amazigh characters (AMHCD). As present the database consists of 25,740 isolated and labeled Amazigh handwritten characters produced by 60 writers. This database has been developed at the IRF-SIC Laboratory of the university Ibn Zohr, Agadir, Morocco. It is designed for training and testing recognition systems for handwritten Amazigh characters. This database is available for researches and academic uses.
