Today is International Indigenous People Day and this is a painting done by one of the tribal kids of Andaman in an workshop done by the Anthropological Museum of Andaman. This is presently being displayed at the museum amongst other well documented artefacts. It's tragic we don't know these and continue to drive them to extinction in the name of our ordered civilization. Our history never depicts there history. We would be drilled with Jewish Holocaust stories but not even a passing mention of the Battle of Aberdeen where tens and thousands of the Greater Andamanese Tribe were massacred just because they revolted to protect their land, their jungles and their trees.
