Abstract
This is a report of brief observations made in the course of an anthropological survey of the Andaman Islands. Perhaps the most valuable information provided are the scattered data on settlement patterns and the population composition of local groups. Evidently some extensive interviewing was conducted with available informants, and various biological data and field specimens were collected, but very little concrete information about these is included. No data are presented on the Nicobarese.
