<P>Researchers have produced aerial photos of jungle dwellers who they say are 
among the few remaining peoples on Earth who have had no contact with the 
outside world.</p> <P>Taken from a small airplane, the photos show men outside thatched communal 
huts, necks craned upward, pointing bows toward the air in a remote corner of 
the Amazonian rainforest.</p> <P>The National Indian Foundation, a government agency in Brazil, published the 
photos Thursday on its Web site. It tracks "uncontacted tribes" -- indigenous 
groups that are thought to have had no contact with outsiders -- and seeks to 
protect them from encroachment.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/D1EB2C44-F841-4D31-9D6B-EB75DCC6959A/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
