Another tribal language gone

The last known speaker of a 65,000 year old language,Boa Sr, died a week ago. In the video above we get to hear a small sample of a language that was somewhat melodic, or maybe she was just singing in her language.

Boa was from the tribe Bo, from around Bangladesh/India area, which is thought to be one of 10 tribes that can be traced back to the "pre-Neolithic period" when people started migrating.
