You bet.

I have read some things on geneology as related to Noah's family. It would seem she would have been a descendent of Ham.

Andaman and Nicobar are the islands where the native tribals shoot arrows at Indian Navy helicopters which bring in food and water for them.

Tribe shoots arrows at aid flight

By Jonathan Charles

BBC News, Andaman Islands

An Indian helicopter dropping food and water over the remote Andaman and Nicobar Islands has been attacked by tribesmen using bows and arrows.

There were fears that the endangered tribal groups had been wiped out when massive waves struck their islands.

But the authorities say the attack is a sign that they have survived.

More than 6,000 people there are confirmed as either dead or missing, but thousands of others are still unaccounted for.

The Indian coastguard helicopter was flying low over Sentinel Island to drop aid when it came under attack.

A senior police officer said the crew were not hurt and the authorities are taking it as a sign that the tribes have not been wiped out by the earthquake and sea surges as many had feared.

The Andaman and Nicobar archipelago is home to several tribes, some extremely isolated.

Officials believe they survived the devastation by using age-old early warning systems.

They might have run to high ground for safety after noticing changes in the behaviour of birds and marine wildlife.

Scientists are examining the possibility to see whether it can be used to predict earth tremors in future.

“Uncontacted” and Isolated Tribes

Native culture experts worried that the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami on December 26, 2004, may have wiped out many or all of the indigenous peoples of India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands. This image of a belligerent Sentinel Island man taken on December 28, as well other photos shot by the Indian Coast Guard, reassured them that at least Sentinelese tribespeople survived.

The Sentinelese are among the world's most isolated people. They are thought to have descended directly from the first voyagers out of Africa. Experts think they have lived in the Andaman archipelago with little outside contact for some 60,000 year.

“Land of Eber”?

The language Hebrew, along with its cousin, Arabic, is an entire family away from the European and Indian languages. In fact, the latter two form a single entity, called the Indo-European language family. At the very least, the map is wrongly colour-coded.

Hebrew and Arabic are part of the Afro-Semitic language family.
