Summary

In the Indian Ocean lies an island notorious for its extreme isolation from the outside world: North Sentinel Island. The Sentinelese, who call North Sentinel Island home, are people who live a Stone Age existence and fiercely defend their territory. Their isolation and violence towards outsiders mean that we know almost nothing about them and probably won’t for quite some time. Learn more about North Sentinel Island, the Sentinelese, and why the world has chosen to leave them alone on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
