Last year we reported about a tribe called “Mashco-Piro” in western Brazil that had, until then, not been contacted by modern man.
But they were a bit shy and even fired arrows at tourists in passing boats. Most recently, an arrow attack by members of the tribe killed Nicolas “Shaco” Flores – a member of a different tribe who had been attempting to make formal contact with the Mashco-Piro for some two decades.
An account of the attack by anthropologist Glenn Shepard underlines the fact that the tribe is fearful of forming ties with the world around them. So it was at a respectful distance of 120m that Spanish archaeologist Diego Cortijo snapped pictures of the tribe using a telescope mounted on a camera, capturing the most detailed images ever taken of such “uncontacted” tribes, many of whom are detailed at a site of the same name.
