From the sky it appears to be an idyllic island with amazing beaches and a dense forest, but tourists or fishermen don’t dare to step foot on this outcrop in the Indian Ocean due to its inhabitants’ fearsome reputation. Visitors who venture onto or too close to North Sentinel Island risk being attacked by members of a mysterious tribe who have rejected modern civilisation and prefer to have zero contact with the outside world. When they do interact with outsiders, it usually violence- the indigenous sentinelese tribe killed two men who re fishing illegally in 2006 and have been known to fling arrows and rock to low flying planes and helicopters on reconniassance missions. Located in the Bay of Bengal, North Sentinel Island belongs to India and remains an enigma, despite being populated for an estimated 60,000 years. Untouched by modern civilisation, very little is known about the Sentinelese people, their language, their rituals and the island they call home. It is too dangerous to approach them due to their hostility to outsiders, meaning they are rarely photographed up close and almost never seen on video. Most of the photos and video clips that do exist are of poor quality. There are also conflicting reports on the tribe’s population, with most estimates putting it in the range of a few dozen to a few hundred. It’s still unclear what impact the 2004 tsunami had on the population and the island,which is part of chain of indian's Adanmand island,although the uncontacted tribe managed from being wiped out. After the tsunami one member of the island was photographed trying to fire an arrow at a indian coast gaurd helicopter Source: http:///YxHqNrHsdb (dialymailtravel)

They are the most black african looking people in that area.. They look just like africans of west africa today... How did africans get there so long ago? Maybe they were dropped off or ship wrecked during the slave trade days or maybe dropped off by the chinese who have been sailing the oceans over 10thousand years even before europeans arived in west africa... Thats another picture i took from an online gallery.. I believe there is a lost history of chinese/Asian contact with west africa even before the first europeans arrived... 1 Like 2 Shares
