HISTORIAN AND ANTHROPOLOGIST RUNOKO RASHIDI IN THE RAIN FOREST OF NORTHERN KERALA, INDIA WITH A DESCENDANT OF THE ANCIENT PEOPLE OF INDIA. IN MAINLAND INDIA THESE BLACK PEOPLE, UNLIKE THOSE IN THE ANDAMAN ISLANDS AND THAILAND, HAVE STRAIGHT HAIR. THE ANCIENT BLACK PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES HAVE A MIXTURE OF BOTH STRAIGHT AND TIGHTLY-CURLED HAIR. I AM NOT SURE IF THE STRAIGHTNESS OF THE HAIR IS THE RESULT OF SOME FORM OF "MIXTURE." TO GIVE YOU A SENSE OF HER HEIGHT, YOU CAN MEASURE HER BY ME. I AM FIVE FEET, FIVE INCHES.
