TOPIC/S: Pagtatao NG Pilipinas (Taong Callao, Taong Tabon, Migrasyong Austronesyano) Contents

This document discusses theories on the peopling of the Philippines, including waves of migration, the Austronesian migration, and the core population theory. It describes Taong Callao, dated to 250,000 BCE, and Taong Tabon, dated to 40,000 BCE, as the earliest inhabitants of the Philippines based on fossil evidence. Theories suggest groups like Negritos, Indonesians A and B, and Malays arrived at different time periods through multiple waves of migration. Austronesian migration is believed to be the origin of the Filipino, Malay and Indonesian peoples, who had a seafaring culture and traded extensively.

THEORIES ON THE PEOPLING PROCESS IN THE PHILIPPINES


1. Waves of Migration
- Henry Otley Beyer, 1947
- “postulates a series of arrivals in the archipelago bringing in different types and
levels of culture” (Samuel)
- This theory was heavily contested by various anthropologists and Filipino
historians including Robert Fox and Felipe Landa Jocano because it cannot
explain the diversity of Philippine ethnic populations. (Samuel)
- 3 WAVES OF MIGRATION
a. Negritos
- 30,000 – 25,000 BC
- presumed to be the original people to inhabit the Philippines
- dark-skinned people
- Their cultural remains were preserved by the negrito-type of
people in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao
b. Indonesians A and B
- 6,000 – 5,000 BC
- Represented today by the Kalinga, Gaddang, Isneg, Mangyan,
Tagbanua, Manobo, Mandaya, Subanun and Sama
- The first group were pushed inland while the second group
occupied the coastal settlements
c. Malay
- 500 BC to 1, 500 AD
- Represented by the Islamized and Christianized people
- Therefore, it assumes that Malays now constituted the largest
portion of the Philippine population
2. Core Population Theory
- 1960s
- Felipe Landa Jocano
- Believes that fossil evidences of ancient men show that they did not only come to
the Philippines but other neighboring countries and there is no way of telling
whether they are negritos or not
- The theory suggests that early inhabitants of Southeast Asia were once of the
same ethnic group with a similar culture, but eventually -through a gradual
process driven by environmental factors - differentiated themselves from one
another
- He presented a periodization of a gradual cultural process in the archipelago
a. Germinal Period 250, 000 to 10, 000 BC
b. Formative Phase 10,000 – 500 BC
- Stone tools (crude)
- Agriculture
c. Incipient Phase ▪ 500 BC to 900 AD
- Stone tools (polished)
- Metal implements
d. Emergent Phase ▪ 900 AD to 1400 AD
- Trading with South East Asia
3. Austronesian Migration
- Language family found in South East Asia, Taiwan, Pacific Islands, Madagascar,
(rapa nui)
- Noong panahon ng Bagong Bato/ Neolitiko, ang grupong naglayag at nakarating
sa kapuluan ay ang AUSTRONESYANO na pinaniwalaang pinagmulan ng lahing
Pilipino, Malay at Indones.
- Austronesyano ay maituturing na wika at lahing laganap sa kapuluan ng Timog
Silangang Asya, at sila’y may taglay na kulturang seafaring, maritimo o
mandadaragat.
- Sila ay bihasa sa paggawa ng bangka/ balanghai, paninirahan sa pampang ng
ilog at dalampasigan, at pagpapahalaga sa palitan at kalakalan.
- TWO MAJOR HYPOTHESIS
a. Out of Taiwan/South China theory
- Peter Bellwood
- Historical linguistics
- language movement = population movements
- posits directional movement but with no causal explanation
b. Island Origin theory
- Wilhelm Solheim
- Also known as Nusantao Maritime Trade/Trading &
Communication Network
- archaeological data
- overlapping reciprocal relationships of population nodes
- implies causality for population movement with the implication of
the rising sea level at the end of the last ice age.

TAONG CALLAO
- Uri ng Homo erectus
- 250, 000 BCE
-
TAONG TABON
- Uri ng Home Sapiens
- 40,000 taon BCE
- The discovery of the human fossil was made by a National Museum team headed by the
late Dr. Robert B. Fox
- The discovery in a Tabon cave in Palawan in 1962 of a skull cap and a portion of a jaw,
presumed to be those of a human being, shows conclusively that man came earlier to
the Philippines than to the Malay Peninsula
- 22, 0000 to 23, 000 y/o (according to NCCA)
