![]() Madhumala Chattopadhyay, the woman who made the Sentinelese put their arrows down I wonder if they have a matriarchal society? It's another tribe, but if you read this article (posted in another comment) the women members of the tribe seemed to command the male members. Too bad we carry gnarly diseases that would wipe out their population in no time. We could learn something (likely many things) from them. The tribes might be primitive in their technological achievements, but socially they are far ahead of us” “Never ever in my six years of doing research alone with the tribes of Andamans did any man ever misbehave with me. That article you linked does an excellent job conveying the impact of her work on university anthropology textbooks to this day. Super sad her work is basically forgotten. ![]() Hilarious to imagine the reactions of the “modern men” on the visit wondering WTF is going on when 4 Sentilenese started bowing to her on the floor of their boat. A moment she had dreamt of since childhood.įascinating that the fact of her being a woman alone made the entire nature of the visit peaceful from the Sentilenese perspective because they revere their women so much. I can’t imagine the courage it took after centuries of failed contact by men, to be the first human to jump off that boat and not be attacked. Out of all the times posts about the Sentilenese have cropped up over the years I have NEVER heard of Madhumala Chattopadhyay. Would you prefer this same subreddit, but only images?
