[Trending] This Tribe Isolated For 55,000 Years Can Legally Kill Anyone Who Steps On Their Island

Humans were always eager to explore unfamiliar lands and cultures. However, there’s one tribe living on an isolated island which no one dares or has a right to visit.

North Sentinal Island, one of the Andaman Islands in the Indian Ocean, is forbidden to visit because it is inhabited by a hostile Sentinelese tribe. This tribe resists all contact with outsiders and aggressively attacks anyone who dares to come near their island. However, visiting this place may not only be dangerous for the curious travelers. Islanders are not immune to modern diseases, so contact with outsiders could tragically wipe out the whole Sentinelese tribe.

The Indian government was eager to make a contact with the tribe. The first and probably the only friendly contact was established in 1991 by scholar T.N. Pandit who arrived at the island bearing coconuts and other gifts in hopes to win the tribe’s trust. For the first time, islanders greeted visitors without bows.

However, soon after this expedition, officials decided to stop all other missions. They concluded that the tribe is healthy and thriving without any intervention of modern civilization. Only a few checks were made after the Tsunami in 2004. After observing the tribe from distance, officials announced that the tribe is healthy and aren’t suffering in any way.

It’s hard to say if the contact with this mysterious tribe will ever be made. As for now, it seems that the tribe is better off without anyone’s interference.
