The Andaman and Nicobar Islands situated between 6° and 14° latitudes and 92° and 94 longitudes in the Bay of Bengal have been inhabited for thousands of years going back to the Middle Palaeolithic age. Through the vast majority of this time the inhabitants of these islands maintained their separated existence diversifying into distinct linguistic, cultural and territorial groups. In the mid-nineteenth century CE, for the first time they came into sustained contact with the outside world. Today, they are mainly consisted of the Great Andamanese tribes like the Jarawa, the Onge and the Sentinelese and the Nicobarese consisting of the great Nicobarese and the Shompens. Host to the tropical climate nourished by both the south-west and the north-east monsoons, the Union Territory is at present divided into three revenue districts with Port Blair as its capital. Andaman and Nicobar Islands dwellers have migrated and settled down from various parts of India and Burma as well. The culture of Andaman and Nicobar Islands is distinct and unique and comprises mainly two types of inhabitants-Indians and Natives. The former are mainly from the Indian Mainland especially from areas like Punjab, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Myanmar and Sri Lanka. The Natives are what makes Andaman and Nicobar Islands different from other parts of the country. They are the main reason why these islands have a wild aura about them.
