The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are a part of the Indian sub-continent and their earliest documented reference in history can be found in the 2nd century chronicled by Greek astronomer Ptolemy and later in the 7th century by the Chinese monk Xuan Zang during his 17-year journey through India. The original inhabitants of the islands are perhaps the most enigmatic, indigenous people in Southeast Asia whose origins and genetic composition has been long debated by the historians.
