What Kind of Weapons Are Used On North Sentinel Island?

23 min • 26 maj 2025

In this episode, we explore the tools used by the Sentinelese, such as scavenged metal knives, fishing arrows, adzes, and fire pits. We delve into their cultural origins, recreate their weapons, and test one while fishing for pike. We'll also discuss a forgotten shipwreck, the potential use of glass by the islanders, and whether they are living in the Stone Age.
