Red-painted Indians from an unknown Amazon jungle tribe brandished bows and
arrows as they were photographed from a passing helicopter.

Brazilian officials discovered the tribesmen earlier this month in Acre State,
near the country's border with Peru, on a trip designed to highlight the
threat posed to remote peoples by deforestation.

One of the photographs they took showed two indigenous men in red trousers
standing in a tiny clearing outside their huts, their bows aloft, while a
third, far darker man stands watching, a white cloth tied around his waist.

The tribesmen were discovered by an expedition organised by Funai, the
Brazilian government's Indian affairs department.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/article4032444.ece"><P>
Funai said it does not know to which tribe they belong but there are said to
be more than 100 "uncontacted" tribes around the world, half of
them in either Brazil or Peru.
