The Banuk are a supposedly primitive tribe, living in hard, snowy conditions. They are considered to be backward by the Carja and the Nora, because they lack a society built on class. Instead, they consider everyone equal, with individuals being judged solely on the basis of their abilities.

The tribe has some curious characteristics like recording its history through songs or sharing the belief that a machine, just like an animal, needs to be thanked after the killing, otherwise, when its parts are taken away, they aren't as valuable as they're supposed to be.

The Banuk are the most mysterious tribe inhabiting the post-apocalyptic Earth and it would not hurt to give them more "screen-time." This would be helpful in exploring the differences between the Nora, the Carja and the Banuk.
