I wonder what it's like to be Sentinelese...

This isn't directly related to the guy who was killed. It just reminded me of them.

Like, what is their culture like? What are their myths and legends? How is their language built up, grammar-wise? What do they tell each other about outsiders to make them refuse outsider interaction with a burning passion?

I’ve been to Andaman islands and from what I remember the taxi drivers used to say that that those tribals were cannibals and hunted/fished for their survival and that their island was approached by the goverment in the 90s with gifts but due to the primitive nature of the tribe, they got hostile, pretty interesting and morbid to think of how one person from modern civilisation with a virus can go there and kill them all lol
