The Veddah people of Sri Lanka have appealed to their country's
government to allow them to return to their land. One Veddah man told

Brazil: Arara on the brink of destruction
The Brazilian government has unexpectedly halted the demarcation of a
key territory belonging to the Arara Indians, called Cachoeira Seca.
The tribe, some of whom were only contacted in 1987, are fighting for
survival against waves of loggers, land speculators and settlers who
have illegally invaded their territory.
