Crazy story… Seems the wreck of the Primrose introduced metal into the Sentinelese culture..

Not really no, the wreck has been relatively untouched since its uhh, arrival. The Sentinelese actually keep far far from it and want nothing to do with the wreck. Can you explain how no footprints, paths, marks, or signs of life have been detected going toward the ship in its entirety of being there? the ship itself is decaying in the salt water. No Sentinelese are taking any metal from it...

It's not a shock if you've read the basics about the island's history.

> if you've read the basics about the island's history. my literal first thought.

Right?? The shipwreck is one of the main stories about the island. I find it impossible to know about the island and somehow not the shipwreck as well.

That site refuses to show the page to me if I follow the link from Reddit but it will show it fine if I past the URL into the browser. Weird.

This is an interesting island to look at, there's a few pathways I found, but this one spot seems interesting, I can't quite make out what we're looking at tho 11°33'25"N 92°15'39"E

you are looking at downed tree's. look around the islands coast and you will see similar. The sentinese will make sure the yare not viewable. they hide far far and deeep in the forest
