    Identify

    Based on something I read three weeks back...

    Why was she in the news?


    Ans. Quoting  Anon "She is Boa Sr., the last person who remembered any Bo,who died on 26 January 2010, at the age of approximately 85.Aka-Bo or Bo is an extinct Great Andamanese language, of the Northern group. It was spoken on the east central coast of North Andaman and on North Reef Island of the Andaman Islands in India. The Aka- at the beginning of the language name is a common Great Andamanese prefix for nouns related to the tongue"

    Quoting Wikipedia:

    The Bo were a tribal race from the Andaman Islands in India, and are thought to have existed for 65,000 years.
    The last member of the tribe was named Boa Senior, and she died at age 85 in late January, 2010. She was the last person who knew the Aka-Bo language.
