Önge language
The Onge (Öñge) language (also spelled ''Ongee, Eng,'' or ''Ung'') is spoken by the Onge people in Little Andaman Island in India. It is one of two known Ongan languages.
== History ==
In the 18th century the Onge were distributed across Little Andaman Island and the nearby islands, with some territory and camps established on Rutland Island and the southern tip of South Andaman Island. Originally restive, they were pacified by M. V. Portman in the 1890s.〔George Weber, ''(the Tribes )''. Chapter 8 in ''(The andamanese )''. Accessed on 2012-07-03.〕〔 By the end of the 19th century they sometimes visited the South and North Brother Islands to catch sea turtles; at the time, those islands seemed to be the limit between their territory and the range of the Great Andamanese people further north.〔M. V. Portman (1899), ''(A history of our Relations with the Andamanese )'', Volume II. Office of the Government Printing, Calcutta, India.〕 Today, the surviving members (less than 100) are confined to two reserve camps on Little Andaman, Dugong Creek in the northeast and South Bay.
The Onge were semi-nomadic and used to be fully dependent on hunting and gathering for food.
The Onge are one of the aboriginal peoples (adivasi) of India. Together with the other Andamanese tribes and a few other isolated groups elsewhere in East Asia, they comprise the Negrito peoples, believed to be remnants of a very early migration out of Africa.
