Before going too far with this, you might like to read this Conversation article (link below). The Noble Savage concept goes back to Rousseau and is usually linked with innate racism.

A quote:
Scholars have long recognised that both the noble and the brutal savage are fantasies of the European mind that kept Indigenous peoples in a suspended state of either elevated purity or perpetual evil.
