The Mante tribe has been a hot talk lately after a trail trail community video captured the fast-paced figure on a scrubby street. Mante people perceived to have a small body, shy, and mysterious.
Indeed this is one of the tribe that is considered as the oldest tribe of Acehnese people.

From the story is a small footprint, like a child, When matched with the narrative of society, indeed the figure in the video figure is also suitable, ie the Mante will run when approached.
Scientific study says they are still a relative of other tribes in the region, such as the Lanun tribe in the oceans of Southeast Asia, the Sakai tribe in Riau, to the Mon-Khmer speakers on the mainland of Indochina. They are still one family, namely Proto Malay aka Old Malay.
"There is a story, a long time ago they were originally located in one area in Aceh Besar, namely in Kampung Seumileuh alias Kampung Rumoh Dua Blaih," said Husaini.
Over time, they moved to the Indra Patra area, where the Lamuri Kingdom. They live up to Indra Puri to Tanoh Abee (Smooth Sandy Soil). The area of the triangle is the valley they inhabit.
"In their development, they spread to several areas, including fertile areas for life, looking for fresh water.They reach the mountains, then they inhabit the mountains.
New religion comes. Once when they were brought before a king so that the Mante is converted to Islam. But they do not want to. The king did not impose religion on them, so they were released and spread to Gayo.
Then what about their short known physical characteristics? How can be like that? Husaini confirmed that they were short-bodied, about 60 cm-1 meter less.
"It's a bit hunched up, but they're very nimble, they run very fast, sometimes when they jump on a bicycle, their bike can lose.
They are regarded as a race that has not been mixed with outsiders, so it is still pure. The stature of modern Acehnese is now formed by interaction with various ethnic groups, including Arab, Chinese, European and Indian.
👉 They are not animals, but humans with somewhat other races and rarely encounter people in general. Maybe others consider animals, but they are not. They are humans who live in forests.
Here below show me a video proof that their existence is real...... 👇
