There are lots of photos of the other tribes, honestly, the garb they wear is pretty similar, so I don't think that would refute anything. All I want is some more official documentation of this interaction.

If the Indian government just sent people over to throw coconuts onto an island and didn't have any official documentation of the trip, or research that the trip resulted in, a story about it more than 20 years later doesn't hold a lot of weight for me.

As you can see, this is just me being a bit pedantic, so if others want to take this as a source of truth, they are welcome to do so, I'd just like to know why they think this is authoritative.
