Jarawa (Andaman Islands)
The Jarawa (also Järawa, Jarwa) are one of the indigenous peoples of the Andaman Islands, located in the Bay of Bengal approximately 200 km south of the nearest continental mainland, Cape Negrais in Myanmar. Their present numbers are estimated at between 250-350 individuals. Since they have shunned (and even repelled) most interactions with outsiders, many particulars of their society, culture and traditions are little understood.
