Primitive tribes in the world are not so rare, but they stand out among primitive tribes with several unique features
Unlike us modern people, there are some preserved
Animal habits
Sleep habits
For example, they sleep not that we normal people sleep for about seven or eight hours in a row, but every 15 minutes to 2 hours of sleep.
Scientists believe that the reason they retain this sleeping habit should be like normal wild animals in order to be vigilant and awake at all times, so as not to be attacked by other animals in their sleep.
Isolated languages
Another major feature is the surprise of linguists. Their language is an isolated language.
There is no other language in the world that is similar to theirs.
Languages are divided into language families and languages, and neighboring countries or regions will affect each other's languages.
Just like even if we haven't studied Japanese, we can recognize some words when we read Japanese, or understand the general meaning when we see sentences.
This is not the case with the pirahant language
Linguists have found that their language has nothing to do with the languages of other surrounding tribes.
This means that they have not had any communication with other tribes around them for at least a thousand years.
But this does not mean that the Pirahant language has not had the same brothers since its inception, but those tribes with similar languages have slowly disappeared with development, and eventually only the Pilahan people are still struggling to survive.
Their language seems like an island to us today.
The unique features of their language are also very puzzling to linguists.
There are no numbers in the language,
There are no numbers in their language, and the concepts they express numbers are described.
For example, many, very few.
There is no concept of precise numbers
The concept of this description can easily change with the subjective meaning of the individual, that is, some people feel that there are few things that others will feel a lot in the eyes of others.
It is because there is no concept of numbers that when they were first discovered, someone from the outside traded with them and cheated many things out of their hands.
Since then, they have stopped trusting outsiders and no longer trade with outsiders.
Second, there is no color in the language
In the same way, there is no fine division of colors in their language, or they use adjectives to describe colors like numbers.
Blue, for example, is the color of the sky
Green, like grass
Third, there is no future with the past in the language
In the world of the Pilahans there is no past and no future, and in their world they are concerned only with the present and only with everything in the present.
They are also known as "the happiest tribe in the world"
People often worry about the past and worry about the future. They are not like that.
That's what we should learn from them
To this day, the Pilahan tribe has only more than 360 people, belonging to a very small number of primitive tribes.
They still live in isolation from the outside world. Local governments have not encouraged primitive tribes to enter society as much as African governments have done with the Maasai.
Instead, a separate area was carved out for the protection of the Pirahant people. Prevent them from receiving outside interference.
Let them continue to live in their own paradise.
