Dog-Headed Men of the Andaman Islands

Dog-Headed Men of the Andaman Islands. 14th Century illustration from a book about Marco Polo's adventures in the Far East. He mentions the the dog-headed barbarians on the island of Angamanain, or the Andaman Islands though it is uncertain whether he visited there and if he did, whether he met the natives, because he describes them as having heads like dogs. The condition of cynocephaly, having the head of a dog or of a jackal, is a widely attested mythical phenomenon existing in many different forms and contexts.
