Sentinelese and the history of humanity


Madhumala with Jarawa tribe in Andaman 
Are the Sentinelese, who are presently being branded as very violent, reminding us of our ancestors 60,000 years back who migrated out of Africa, the cradle of human civilisation ?? We know of our ancestors not more than 10,000 years back. 

The Sentinelese tribals, their traditions, lifestyle, beliefs and culture must be preserved by all means as they are our sole opportunity along with Jarawa tribe to understand how our ancestors lived and migrated to different parts of the world out of Africa. 
Death of US missionary John Chau has again kindled global interest in knowing our common anthropological history.  

On Jan 4 1991 when a researcher from Archeological Society of India , Madhumala Chattopadhyay was the first woman to establish contact with the Sentinelese in North Sentinelese islands in Andamans located 1200 km from Indian mainland, nobody knew she was making history !!

The outside world would like to know the following facts and much more..
1. what is inside the 60 sqkm island covered with thick vegetation ?
2. Where do the elderly of the sentinelese live ?  
3. How many of them are in total in the island 60 sqkm in area and 111 m above MSL ? 
4. What is their lifestyle ? 
5. Where do they bury their dead ? 
6. What are their customs, beliefs and rituals ?
7. Do they have any records of past events with them ?  
8. How many times have outside race people come there ? 
9. What is the average life span of these people, the diseases if any they suffer from etc
10. Where and how do they stay ? 
Yual Noah Harari
11. Do they have social systems like marriage etc ?
There are thousands and thousands of such questions we would like to know about their style of living ..  Anthropologists the world over would now be interested in knowing more about these tribals to learn more about how humans have evolved over the years ? Will these revelations point to the end of organised religion in the world ?

Will the Jewish Professor Yual Hariri have to rewrite the history of mankind ?
