These are the last humans who have stayed outside ‘civilisation'

A NEW REPORT BY SURVIVAL INTERNATIONAL, Uncontacted Peoples: At the Edge of Survival, is the latest accounting of the human story - and it is a historical document of unparalleled power. It reveals that at least 196 groups in the world are still uncontacted, most of them gravely threatened by logging, mining and drilling for oil. These are the last human beings who have stayed outside ‘civilisation’ since the violence of the West reached across the globe after 1492.

What are the origins of the Yule Lads?

To learn about the Jólasveinar (Yule Lads), we must start with their mother, the terrifying ogress Grýla.

Folk tales and poems tell how she descends from the mountains with an empty sack to stuff full of children. Grýla owns the monstrous Jólaköttur (Yule Cat), which roams the countryside on Christmas Eve, searching for children to gobble up if they're not wearing new clothes.
