Exploring the Anthropological Museum

The Anthropological Museum isn’t a massive structure, but it’s packed with exhibits that tell a powerful story. Opened in 1975 by the Anthropological Survey of India, the museum showcases the history, lifestyle, and customs of the island’s indigenous tribes, including the Great Andamanese, Onge, Jarawa, Sentinelese, and Nicobarese.

One of the most impressive displays is the life-size replicas of tribal huts. These structures are designed to look exactly like the homes these tribes lived in, giving you a peek into their daily lives. You’ll also find an array of artifacts like hunting tools, weapons, cooking utensils, and traditional clothing. It’s a simple yet effective way to understand how these communities adapted to island life long before modern amenities arrived.
