Everything We Know About the World's Most Isolated Tribe

Ойын-сауық

There are about 100 uncontacted native groups around the world, but none of them are more isolated than the Sentinelese tribe. Located in the northern Andaman Islands of India, these indigenous people conscientiously separate themselves from the outside world. In fact, their isolation has likely saved lives, as nearby tribes have suffered losses at the hands of outsiders who carry diseases or create hostility. Explorers commonly exploit native people and kill the animals they hunt for food.

    As an Indian, I kinda agree with this rule of leaving the Sentinelese alone. When it comes to Indigenous cultures, we kinda resonate with their beliefs because we follow sorta similar cultures. This reminds me of the Pintupi Nine in Western Australia. They were among the last uncontacted Indigenous peoples in Australia before they were spotted in the desert in the early 1980s.

    The Indian government acted correctly in banning all visitors to the island. These people have the right to remain Isolation from the rest of the world and live their own life. They are extremely vulnerable and have no resistance to common illnesses. If people were allowed to visit Sentil then the inevitable would happen. The island would eventually get ruined by tourism or prospectors would come looking for valuable things such as gold, silver, diamonds etc etc. I expect if this were the case then the native people would be forced to mine the stuff and be shamelessly exploited. No, these islanders should definitely be left in peace.

He paid them to get him close then look a boat to shore, and the diary he left shows he was very aware that what he was doing could end in death. More messed up is the missionary group he worked for praised him as a martyr while his dad cursed them for convincing his young son to go toward his untimely death.

    Maybe it has; we have no way to know. However, isolated societies throughout history have developed a number of ways to deal with the results of inbreeding to include executing any child that shows signs of defects or preventing people who aren't "normal" from reproducing. I'm not saying the Sentinelese do that but it's one of the possibilities. Inbreeding is a problem when it reinforces recessive genes that have negative consequences. In theory, a society could eventually cull out all the problematic genes through selective reproduction although as far as I know that has never happened. I've read that cheetahs are so inbred that they don't reject a skin graft from another cheetah. I suppose the same sort of thing could happen with people.

    What the Sentinelese don't know, they don't miss. The weather is warm enough all year round not to need fire for warmth. They get enough nutrition from eating food raw. Keeping a fire lit 24/7 is a pain when it is used only occasionally. The Bow and Arrow harvest food when they find it, so it is wise to know how to make them and use them.

    you need a fire for far more than warmth. You need it for cooking (as humans thrive off of cooked food). Fire also used to keep away dangerous animals and bugs. If they knew how to make it, they would. Further eating raw fish can be dangerous. You're right they have what they need to survive but obviously they would benefit tremendously with a bit of technology. I do wonder why they are so territorial.

    Humans need (or benefit from) cooked for for nutrition (it has other benefits, as the last poster said). It's unlikely that they never learned to make fire (unless they once knew but forgot, but that also seems somewhat unlikely). Humans have had fire for hundreds of thousands of years from the time of early Homo sapiens (and likely earlier; it predates Homo sapiens).

One man was saved from being killed by an arrow because a Sentenilese woman smacked the man with the bow to make him stop. This suggests the Sentenilese have a culture with women defining peace and men defining war.

    There's no evidence that they developed the bow and arrow independently, though.

    Wow, the ignorance is real! Try to remember, ALL of us are descended from hunter/gatherer societies, and that most indigenous societies who've made contact with modern cultures, have received little to no benefit from that interaction, and many have either been wiped out entirely, or mourne the loss of their entire way of life. Which they highly preferred. Primitive doesn't mean inferior. All people who've lived in harmony with their land, have discovered ways to treat various wounds and ailments with the various plants and animals around them, and quite a few modern medicines are derived/ refined from plants, even today. In fact, there are so many chronic illnesses, stress, depression and diseases plaguing modern man, I'd bet those who've given modernity the finger, live healthier & happier than everyone living with a smartphone, a sense of entitlement, constant stress and a much higher chance of chronic pain or disease today. ASSuming that the modern lifestyle is better, because of all the modern conveniences that are slowly killing us, is like thinking that the incarcerated are happier, because they don't have to pay bills or go broke paying medical expenses. Oh yeah, those poor, cancer-free savages! They don't even have iphones, imagine the horror! They're never going to know the joys of road rage or having their company's CEO get away with stealing their pension fund! We must help the poor unfortunates... their staunch defense against anyone who tries to land is probably the best decision they have ever made, despite not even figuring out how to light a fire

So do they still imagine we live in Victorian times society? So many wondrous questions that hopefully we’ll never know the answer to.

    @@WickedScott True, but I just get frustrated when info is wrong because it isn't that hard to find this info. It's definitely 3 separate tribes who respond differently to people visiting. The main visitor who documented them said how some days they were accepting but shy, and others they were dangerous and protective. Imagine one day you're taking photos with the camp and the next day you return to have arrows shot at you. It's just an interesting thing to know. There's a good chance that visitors have only seen the protective tribe while the more shy one hid and watched. Who even knows, but it's definitely different people with different views of their own island.

    Thank you for the shade on the late John Allen. Yes, he did just try like the others, BUT he was too blinded and stubborn thinking he’d be the tribe’s “savior” even AFTER he was attacked.

    Last group standing? Only way I see the entire human race facing near extinction is a nuclear war or global cataclysm. You truly think Pakistan nuking India wouldn't affect that island in terrible ways? Or a meteor deciding to land as far from India as possible? The "last group standing" will be the ones lucky enough not to be in a hotspot during a nuclear holocaust or on the side of the planet that gets whacked by a space rock, so no, nobody will be laughing at anyone
