7 most isolated tribes in the world

While globalisation may have dissolved the territorial boundaries between people by joining them with each other through technology, the case is not the same for the entire planet. In some hidden and protected areas of the land live many indigenous tribes that follow a way of living that has been passed down through generations, and the worries of civilisation remain far away from their worlds. While they refuse interaction with others, they also don't accept anyone approaching their territories. These are 7 of the most isolated tribes in the world.

The Sentinelese tribe residing on the North Sentinel Island in the Bay of Bengal is considered to be the most isolated tribe in the world. They fiercely resist contact with outsiders and are known to have killed people who illegally arrived at their land.

The Awa tribe is an indigenous tribe of Brazil that lives in the Amazon rainforest. They are considered to be one of the most threatened tribes on earth due to the rapid deforestation, logging and other encroachment practices hindering their way of living. They derive their living from the forest itself and speak a language called Guaja.

The Ayoreo tribe is one of the 18 tribes living in Paraguay. Much of their inhabited land and forest is being destroyed by the government which is allowing foreign companies to make establishments there. While they were forced into contact with other humans, very less people within the tribe remained uncontacted.

The Palawan People are an indigenous ethnic group native to the Palawan island group in the Philippines. They sustain by hinting, fishing and practising agriculture on the island and remain isolated from the nearby habitations.

This tribe in Papua New Guinea is a hunter-gatherer tribe known for their crocodile-infested land and secret initiation ceremony. They have made some contacts with popular British explorers such as Benedict Allen. However, mostly this tribe is popular for killing intruders and preserving their heads as trophies.

Residing in the rainforests of Peru, the Mashco Piro tribe is believed to be the largest isolated tribe on Earth, with more than 750 in number. They thrive in isolation in the forests and sustain products derived from the natural surroundings.

The Moxihatetema tribe resides in the Yanomami Reserve and consists of approximately 100 people. Illegal gold miners in the region are a growing threat to the tribe's inhabited land, but they are thriving, with their survival dependent on the ecosystem.
