#Didyouknow Nicobarese People Look a Lot Like NE People. The people in this video may initially give you the impression that they are from Southeast Asia or the Northeast, but they are actually native Nicobarese from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Bay of Bengal. The Nicobarese, or the Shompen, are the indigenous people of the interior of Great Nicobar Island, part of the Indian union territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. They speak a language distantly related to the Khasi and Jainti

For centuries, the endangered tribes of Andaman and Nicobar islands have lived in isolation. Some are already extinct or on the verge of extinction, such as the Sentinelese that recently made headlines for killing an American missionary. | The Times of India
