Scientists Reveal The Genetic Origins of Enigmatic Andamanese Tribes

Описание к видео Scientists Reveal The Genetic Origins of Enigmatic Andamanese Tribes

The origin of the Andamanese has been the subject of speculation for centuries.As recently as 1973, an author wrote, "I cannot explain the Andamanese, and nothing is known about their past," and little more is known today.The Andamanese are near extinction following the population reduction caused by "pacification" and disease.Of the dozen linguistically distinct tribes who populated the islands in the early 20th century, only four survive, the Sentinelese, Jarawa, Great Andamanese, and Onge, with a combined population of 400 to 500 individuals.
