Untouched Tribe

Find about 100 Brits from Eastern England & London...

Load them up with 17th century clothing & gear:

And drop them off about 500 yards from these folks.

THEN, we get to see some real anthropology in action.
Keep the arbusques, murtherers, and armor at hand-this will get exciting.

(Don't forget to tell the Brits that we wanth them to make a sizable profit either!)
Shouldn't be send Spainards or maybe Portuguese? They are in Brazil after all.

Not too exiting, most of these tribes are very small.

If you haven't seen the movie he's refering to, you should it is hilarious and original.:yay:

It's hilarious, especiallt when everybody in the tribe starts fighting over it because of its different uses, and when the lead character starts "retrning it to the gods" by throwing it back into the air, and it keeps coming down like a bomb, with the expected consequences
There is a sequel out also that is also pretty funny.

It is funny, but you just gotta keep wondering how it hasn't broken. I saw the movie a long time ago and I was just waiting for it to break.

Lack of basic medical care makes life pretty miserable. Things that are easily treated like fistula guarantee a life of misery for women. Don't think for a moment these people aren't riddled with any number of parasitic and other diseases. I can understand why people want them to remain "pure" and untouched in their jungle home but I can't romanticize their squalid existence, these are people who die from dental abscesses and broken bones. I don't buy into the noble savage myth but at the same time primitive peoples don't do well when exposed to the modern world either, and these folks still have scabs on their ass where tails used to be.

I'm going to have to disagree with you a little on this one. Who knows what they are riddled with? Lets not forget how healthy the Native Americans became after the settlers introduced themselves (and their modern medicine). :sarcasm: I think it's easy for us to think of what they would want, but we are surrounded by modern conveniences. They "don't know what they're missing." Besides, survival of the fittest. :shrug: They've made it this long without "our" help, I'm sure they'll be just fine. :yay: I just think it's wrong of use to decide they need our "help."
