Sama-Bajau - The Supernormal Tribe That Can Hold Breath For 13 Minutes 🇵🇭🇲🇾🇮🇩🇧🇳
Have you ever heard about someone who can hold his breath for 13 minutes under 70 meters deep water? Yes. it is true. There are some people who have this extraordinary breath-holding ability. And the name of this tribe is Sama-Bajau.
The name collectively refers to related people who usually call themselves the Sama or Samah; or are known by the exonyms Bajau. They usually refers to several Austronesian ethnic groups of Maritime Southeast Asia with their origins from the southern Philippines.
These people remain immersed in the water for several minutes without any diving equipment (underwater breathing apparatus). These people usually live a seaborne lifestyle and use small wooden sailing vessels such as the perahu, djenging, balutu, lepa, pilang and vinta.
Sama-Bajau have sometimes been called the "Sea Gypsies". The Sama-Bajau tribe people are traditionally from the many islands of the Sulu Archipelago in the Philippines, coastal areas of Mindanao, northern and eastern Borneo, the Celebes, and throughout eastern Indonesian islands.
Some Sama-Bajau groups native to Sabah (Sabah is a state of Malaysia located on the northern portion of Borneo Island) are also known for their traditional horse culture. British administrators in Sabah classified the Sama-Bajau as "Bajau" and labelled them as such in their birth certificates. Thus the Sama-Bajau in Malaysia may sometimes self-identify as "Bajau" or even "Malay" for political reasons.
Total Population 1.1 million worldwide:
- Philippines: 470,000
- Malaysia: 436,000
- Indonesia: 345,000
- Brunei: 12,000
The Bajau have been a nomadic, seafaring people for most of their history. Many Bajau still practice that same lifestyle to this day, which explains why they are still commonly called "sea gypsies." They chart particularly the waters of the Sulu Sea, off the southwestern coast of the Philippines, and the various seas that surround the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, and Brunei Darussalam.
These are among the most dangerous waters in the world with sporadic policing at best and a very high incidence of open piracy. Yet these Bajau claim never to have wielded weapons — preferring to simply flee from potential attack. They come ashore only to bury the deceased and to live temporarily while making new boats.
Of course the seafaring Bajau make their living from fishing. Those who have abandoned that lifestyle have become farmers and cattle rearers, earning them the local nickname, "cowboys of the east." Indeed their equine skills are well known in this part of the world, and are always to be found displayed in Bajau ceremonial events. Still other Bajau live a lifestyle between nomadic and sedentary, housed in villages on the water, but not far from land.
Freediving associated with these people life on the sea appear to have endowed the Bajau with several genetic adaptations to facilitate their lifestyle. After a long research on them, scientists claim that they have this amazing breath-holding ability because of the changes in genes.
The spleens of these people have become quite large with time. A recent study showed that Bajau spleens are about 50 per cent larger than normal people which letting them store more haemoglobin-rich blood, which is expelled into the bloodstream when the spleen contracts at depth, allowing breath-holding dives of longer duration.
The boat-dwelling Sama-Bajau see themselves as non-aggressive people. They kept close to the shore by erecting houses on stilts, and travelled using lepa, handmade boats which many lived in. These people dive in the sea every day in search of food. Usually they go down to 70 meters in the sea without oxygen. At that depth, they can walk or swim for 13 minutes in one breath. These divers spend 60 percent of their daily activities inside the sea.

A Total War Saga: TROY

A Total War Saga: TROY is the first in the award-winning strategy series to focus on the Bronze-Age Mediterranean and the legendary twenty-year conflict between the kingdoms of Troy and Mycenaean Greece, known as the Trojan War.
Total War Saga: Troy is a strategy computer game developed by the Creative Assembly Sofia and published by Sega. It is part of the Total War Saga sub-series and will be released on August 13, 2020 on the Epic Games Store, then on Steam in Summer 2021. As part of the 12 month exclusivity promotional deal with Epic Games, Total War Saga: Troy will be free of charge for the first 24h of it's release.
The game is set during the Trojan War in the Bronze Age, taking place the furthest back in time the series has ever covered.
The Greek gods featured in Troy can influence the game in similar ways to their Homeric counterparts, with their influence spanning entire factions, rather than directly intervening on the battlefield. Gaining favour with the different gods requires players to invest time or sacrifice resources, but also provides various benefits as the game progresses.
Although there is little documentation of Bronze Age naval warfare, naval combat has been included in the form of island battles, inspired by that featured in Total War: Warhammer II – Curse of the Vampire Coast. The Greek god Poseidon will play a major role in these battles.
Hero versus hero combat has been implemented in Troy, wherein two fighting heroes will be given room by nearby units, creating a circular battle area and preventing other units from intervening. Some heroes have an active battle ability called Divine Challenge, which taunts opposing characters into one-on-one combat. Eight heroes are included in the game, such as the Greek champion- Achilles, and the Prince of Troy- Hector.
A Trojan horse mechanic plays a major role within the campaign, appearing in the campaign at specific moments, and providing significant bonuses to players should it be acted upon quickly enough.
Troy introduces a new multiple resource economy that reflects the advancing pre-monetary barter economy of the Bronze Age setting. The five different resources are food, wood, stone, bronze, and gold, which can be found within different regions to varying degrees of scarcity. Food and wood are used to recruit early game units and construct simple buildings, whereas more formidable structures will require stone, and higher tier units will require bronze. Gold is vital for trade due to its universal rarity.
The diplomacy system in Troy builds on that featured in Total War: Three Kingdoms, allowing you to appease allies, your enemies in their place, allowing the player to change the entire course of the Trojan war. Other new diplomatic features which are unique to Troy will also be introduced.
