The anthropological museum in Port Blair is a lovely museum. The history of the indigenous tribes like ongil and jarowas are exhibited over there. There is a section where the art of making a Nicobarese hut with natural resources are exhibited. It is amazing to note the utilization of natural resources by these tribes.

@sathviksouvik Probably so later on, but first they had to learn to live with what was available to them, and that was very little. They learned from their own experiences.

@RubyHawk thanks Ruby I totally agree with you. I just try to take myself 300 years back. at that time there were no flights. So living in islands meant the jarowas and ongils had limited resources only in the islands and they could not swim the 4000 kilometers to come to any other country

A nice photo. Humans know how to survive with available resources.
