The Andamanese were the indigenous hunters and gatherers of the Andaman Islands which are located in the Bay of Bengal. There were thirteen distinct ethnic groups at the beginning of the twentieth century. Today there are four. The Andamanese live for the most part on the coast where fish is the main staple. After the December 2005 tsunami, only an estimated 500 Andamanese survived.
