Land of the Lost Tribe



The Indian Ocean Island is the home of a “lost tribe”. The tribe has lived on North Sentinel Island in the Indian Ocean for about 60,000 years. When these people come into contact with the “outside world” it usually involved violence. They are hostile towards outsiders.

The Islanders are known to fire arrows or throw rocks at low flying aircraft on scouting missions. The people have rarely ever been recorded on video or photographed because of how dangerous it is to visit the island.

India’s government has given up on efforts to make contact with the islanders. Instead they established a three-mile exclusion zone around the island.
