Since H. Othley Beyer first proposed his theory of wave migration, many scientists have come to the question of how, when and why humans first arrived in the Philippines. Current scientific consensus From Taiwan model, which is broadly in line with genetic, archaeological and cultural evidence. Older theories Wave Migration Theory Beyer is the most widely known theory of prehistoric peopling Philippines that of H. Otley Beyer, founder of the Department of Anthropology of the University of the Philippines. Heading this department for 40 years, Professor Beyer became an unquestioning expert on The Philippine backstory, exerting early leadership in this field and influencing the first generation of Filipino historians and anthropologists, archaeologists, paleontologists, geologists and students around the world. According to Dr. Beyer, the ancestors of the Filipinos came in different migration waves: Dawn Man, a caveman-like man who looked like the Java Man, the Peking Man and another Asian Homo erectus 250,000 years ago. A group of indigenous pygmies, Negritos, which arrived between 25,000 and 30,000 years ago on land bridges. The maritime instrument uses an Indonesian group that arrived about 5,000 to 6,000 years ago and were the first immigrants to reach the Philippines by sea. The navigators are more civilized Malays who brought Iron Age culture and were the real colonizers and dominant cultural group in the pre-Hispanic Philippines. There is no definite evidence, archaeological or historical, to support this theory of migration, and over time has made this more unlikely. The key issues of this theory are Beyer's dependence on the theories of progressive evolution and the migration diffusion of the 19th century, which, as has been shown in other contexts, are overly simplistic and unreliable, as well as his dependence on incomplete archaeological findings and speculations. His claims that the Malays were the original settlers of the guerscini and the dominant cultural transmitter now seem untenable, no further evidence has emerged in support of his Dawn Man, and improved bathymetric sensing has established that there was almost certainly no land bridge to Sundaland, although most of the islands were connected and could be accessible through the Mindoro Strait and Sibutu. Writing in 1994, Philippine historian William Scott concluded that it is likely that no anthropologist accepts the theory of waver-wave migration today. The German scientist who studied the Philippines, Fritjof Voss, even argued that the current sounds probably generously overestimate the previous situation, as the Philippines has steadily risen above the known geological history. The theory of the main population of the Sahul shelf and the probe shelf today. The area between them is called Wallace. A less rigid version of the earlier theory of wave migration is the theory of the main population, first proposed by anthropologist Felipe Landa Jocano of the University of the Philippines. This theory claims that there was no discrete waves of migration. Instead, he suggests offering South-East Asians were from the same ethnic group with a similar culture, but through a gradual process over time, environmental factors differed from each other. Jokano claims that the fossil evidence of ancient people indicates that they migrated not only to the Philippines, but also to New Guinea, Borneo and Australia. He says there is no way to determine if they were Negritos at all. However, what is certain is that there is evidence of the Togo Philippines being inhabited tens of thousands of years ago. In 1962, a skull cap and part of the jaw, presumably human, were found in the Tapon Cave in Palawan. Nearby charcoal from cooking was dated about 22,000 years ago. While Palawan was directly associated with Sundaland during the last Ice Age (and separated from the rest of the Philippines by the Mindoro Strait), still older remains of Callao Mana (circa 67,000 BC) were discovered in northern Luzon. Some argue that this could show a settlement in the Philippines earlier than in the Malay Peninsula. Jokano also believes that today's Filipinos are part of a long process of cultural evolution and movement of people. This applies not only to Filipinos, but also to Indonesians and Malays of Malaysia. No group of three is culturally or genetically dominant. Thus, Jocano says it is not right to attribute Philippine culture as Malay in orientation. According to Jokano's findings, the people of the prehistoric islands of southeast Asia had the same population as the combination of human evolution that occurred on the islands of southeast Asia about 1.9 million years ago. The evidence for this is fossil materials found in various parts of the region and the movements of others from mainland Asia in historical times. He states that these ancient people cannot be classified under any of the historically identified ethnic groups (Malays, Indonesians and Filipinos) of today. Other well-known anthropologists, such as Robert Bradford Fox, Alfredo E. Evangelista, Jesus Peralta, zevs A. Salazar and Ponciano L. Bennagen, agreed with Jocano. Some still preferred Beyer's theory as a more acceptable model, including anthropologist E. Arsenio Manuel. Contemporary theories Major articles: Austronesian peoples and Negrito Best-fit genomic proportions of the Austronesians mix in Southeast Asia and their bred population movements 12 Austronesian chronological map of the expansion of .13 Modern theories of peopling the islands of the Philippines are interpreted against the backdrop of the migrations of the wider Austronesian peoples. They include two main schools of thought, From Sundaland Models and Out of Taiwan models. Of the two, however, the most widely hypothesis hypothesis model behind Taiwan, which largely corresponds to linguistic, genetic, archaeological and cultural data. From Sundaland, the various hypotheses of From Sundaland put forward by a minority of contemporary authors and somewhat different in detail are similar to F. Landa Jokano's Basic Population hypothesis. However, instead of the Philippines, they assume the origin of the Austronesian peoples as the now sunken Sundaland land (modern Sumatra, Java, Borneo and the Malay Peninsula). These models have been criticized as relying only on the genetic data of mtDNA without taking into account the admixture of events, thus having results that mistakenly combine the much older Paleolithic Negrito population with the new Neolithic Austronesian peoples. Nusantao Maritime Trading and Communication Network is a notable model among the Out of Sundaland hypothesis , The Naval Trade and Communication Network of Nusantao by Wilhelm Solheim II. He suggests that people with distant origins from 50,000 years ago in the area of modern coastal east Vietnam and southern China moved to the Bismarck Islands to the south and east of Mindanao and turned into Austronesian cultures. They are believed to have

  • CN Flores the CATTLE CARAVANS of ANCIENT CABOLOAN
    C.N. Flores THE CATTLE CARAVANS OF ANCIENT CABOLOAN (INTERIOR PLAINS OF PANGASINAN): CONNECTING HISTORY, CULTURE AND COMMERCE BY CARTWHEEL Caravan cultures throughout the world depict stories of real jour- neys, discoveries and exploits. They also account for the construction of local histories, territories and market societies. At best, caravan routes map the geoeconomic and the ethnohistoric trail of peoples on the road towards venture capitalism in the earlier centuries. But in the 21st century, the history of caravan cultures remain only in the people’s memory as artefact (or artifi ce?) and which has been romanticized into bioepics or heroic adventures of legendary men caught in the age of material adventurism from the 13th to 16th centuries. In this day of global network and cyber transactions, it is fascinating and at the same time remarkable how the caravan culture still persists in the Philippines. Its persistence as a vestige of feudal past in an era of intensifi ed commercialization and industrialization is indeed indicative of uneven modes of development, as it is symbolic of inter- secting diverse cultures where the rural locale ventures into the national and into the global with far reaching implications on issues of ethnicity and cultural import. The cattle caravans of ancient Caboloan continue to peddle their bamboo-based products from the province of Pangasinan to the highways of Metro Manila. These are the ubiquitous cattle-drawn carriages selling hammocks, bamboo chairs and bookshelves we see in front of SM Fairview, Commonwealth, East and C.P. Garcia Avenues. But not until recently when Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) agents found them illegally parked along national roads thereby considered obstruction to traffi c.

  • Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014
    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.

  • Jose Rizal : Re-Discovering the Revolutionary Filipino Hero in the Age of Terrorism
    JOSE RIZAL : RE-DISCOVERING THE REVOLUTIONARY FILIPINO HERO IN THE AGE OF TERRORISM BY E. SAN JUAN, Jr. Fellow, WEB Du Bois Institute, Harvard University Yo la tengo, y yo espero que ha de brillar un dia en que venza la Idea a la fuerza brutal, que despues de la lucha y la lenta agonia, otra vzx mas sonora, mas feliz que la mi sabra cantar entonces el cantico triunfal. [I have the hope that the day will dawn/when the Idea will conquer brutal force; that after the struggle and the lingering travail,/another voice, more sonorous, happier than mine shall know then how to sing the triumphant hymn.] -- Jose Rizal, “Mi Retiro” (22 October 1895) On June 19, 2011, we are celebrating 150 years of Rizal’s achievement and its enduring significance in this new millennium. It seems fortuitous that Rizal’s date of birth would fall just six days after the celebration of Philippine Independence Day - the proclamation of independence from Spanish rule by General Emilio Aguinaldo in Kawit, Cavite, in 1898. In 1962 then President Diosdado Macapagal decreed the change of date from July 4 to June 12 to reaffirm the primacy of the Filipinos’ right to national self-determination. After more than three generations, we are a people still in quest of the right, instruments, and opportunity to determine ourselves as an autonomous, sovereign and singular nation-state. Either ironical or prescient, Aguinaldo’s proclamation (read in the context of US Special Forces engaged today in fighting Filipino socialists and other progressive elements) contains the kernel of the contradictions that have plagued the ruling elite’s claim to political legitimacy: he invoked the mythical benevolence of the occupying power.
