Interesting list, makes me appreciate living in a house.

Cool list.

(#3 - they have to be on the far EASTERN part of Indonesia( not western), on the border with Papau New Gineau. That province in Indonesia is called Irian Jaya)

(#5 - watched a documentary long long time ago, about a guy who studied a Amazon tribe, ended up marrying one of the girls from the tribe and bringing her to the US. Not surprise, it did not go well, and she moved back to the jungle to live)

(#11 - that island in Africa. Not sure they would be counted as reclusive. Seems like you are living on top of each other)

(#13 - on of my "bucket list" places to visit!!!! LOL)

Would they think of themselves as reclusive? They probably have more direct human contact than the vast majority of us.

I once had a long distance thing with a sentinelise woman. They're still using first generation iPhones if you can believe that.

I guess there's hipsters in all societies.

150 people? Imagine the level of inbreeding going on there.

The death of a young American, killed almost immediately upon landing on the island’s coast in November 2018, reminded the rest of humanity of the existence of this population of just 150 souls.

Sure, just need to keep those phones connected to power all the time. I still have a couple of first generation iPod touches (contemporaries of the first generation iPhones) that still work, just that their batteries cannot hold a charge anymore so to actually use one you have keep it connected to power all the time.

Good point. Not easy to come up with a measure for reclusiveness that different cultures will agree with.
