Do some of these scenarios seem familiar?
~ "Many of the Amazon tribes choose to avoid contact with outsiders because they have had unpleasant encounters in the past."
~ "Tribes may seek contact with outsiders because they begin to trust their intentions, says Hill. "As soon as the tribes believe they might have some peaceful contact, all these groups want some outside interaction," he says. "It's a human trait to want to expand our contacts." Modern medicine, metal tools and education can also exert a powerful pull."
~ "Often, there is a lot of disease because the tribes-people are exposed to novel pathogens. It is not uncommon for half the population to die of respiratory illness."
These films could easily be from the earlier explorers hundreds of years ago if they'd had the technology of modern cameras.
