- The following day, the tribe surrounded Rosolie's expedition and fired large seven-foot arrows, injuring a guide named George who survived despite serious wounds.
- The incident highlights the dangers of contacting isolated tribes, whose reactions can quickly shift from friendly to hostile.
- The tribe's interest in bananas underscores their value and cultural preferences, contrasting with modern desires for technology or entertainment.
