There is generally one man who excels the rest in hunting, warfare, wisdom, and kindliness, and he is deferred to and becomes in a sense chief. A regular feature of Andamanese social life is the meeting at intervals between two or more communitcs. Marriage is strictly monogamous.
F 72 The Races of Man The Andamanese have a system of taboos on certain foods, notably turtle and pig, at those periods of life which they regard as critical. Disease and death are attributed to the spirits of jungle a...nd sea, and after a death has taken place the camping place will be aban- doned for a fresh site. The Andamanese religious system is exceedingly primitive. There are certain spirits of sea and jungle whom they must avoid vexing ; chief of these is Biliku who controls the weather. Biliku is generally regarded as feminine and the north-east wind belongs to her, while her male counterpart Tarai owns the south-west wind. The spirits of the dead are believed by some tribes to haunt the jungle or the sea, and by others to repair to a place below the earth where there is a jungle.
