I have no academic basis for this but I kind of imagine any remaining uncontacted tribes are sort of mangled versions of the cultures they descended from. They’ve been kept small and isolated so their oral traditions may have become severely warped and may essentially be tiny ‘cult-of-personalities’ of a few people’s ideas that have very little similarity to more ancient traditions.
