Map To The Past

How come the Mundaris and the Nicobarese have independent origins, in spite of sharing the same linguistic family? There languages must be sharing certain distinctly common characteristics. Otherwise, the issue of establishing a common ancestry would not have cropped up. Had their forefathers managed to come in contact with one another, before both of them landed in what now happens to be India, at different times though? Such unsolved puzzles provide the driving fuel to anthropologists to codify a full-proof human ancestry map.
