Correction: In the video, we stated that Polynesians may have migrated to the Philippines. While there is evidence of Polynesian-style pottery found in the region, the origins and significance of this pottery style are still a topic of debate among scholars. After reading through the many insightful comments on this topic, it appears that the evidence actually suggests that Austronesian-speaking peoples, who shared common ancestry with both Filipinos and Polynesians, may have spread the pottery style throughout the region. We apologize for any confusion or misinformation we may have caused and strive to ensure the accuracy of our content in the future. We appreciate all of the engagement and insights from our viewers, as learning history is always best done through a collective effort. Thank you so much for watching our video!

Austronesians are the native islanders who moved from Taiwan and spread to Malaysia, Indonesia, Madagascar, parts of Thailand and Vietnam. We don’t call ourselves Austronesians anymore because many of us have Chinese, Indian, Spanish, etc bloods. But, as Filipinos we are still predominantly Austronesians. Polynesians are combination of Austronesian and Papuans. That’s why they are bigger and tend to have curly hair. Austronesians tend to have straight hair and aren’t as tall. Both groups were maritime by the time colonialization came.

Hmmm interesting, where you isolated there by the lockdown? That’s pretty much the time when very few foreigners were in the archipelago, great people and so beautiful country

I think you may have switched the immigration pattern. The Austronesians who had settled in the Philippines (around 2200 BC) migrated to other islands of SE Asia including Papua New Guinea and intermarried with the people there (original migrants from Africa). Those people then continued to sail all over the Pacific islands to become the Polynesians around the time of Christ. The knowledge of pottery traditions of the Lapita civilization of Samoa are linked to the same traditions in Philippines where pottery has been produced since 1500 BC according to archaeological finds of burial jars.

What are you talking about?… there’s no evidence of back migration from the Pacific Islands into the Philippines. The Pacific Islanders were the ones who came from us. Those potteries have similarities because Austronesians migrated from Taiwan into the Philippines, then they migrated out of the Philippines, towards the Pacific Ocean and those ancient migrants are basically the ancestors of modern Pacific Islanders. Those migrants also mixed with Papuans and Melanesians, hence why modern Pacific Islanders are genetically mixed between Austronesian and Oceanian.

The “out of Taiwan theory” has been debunked due to recent archaeological evidence that backs up earlier proof (DNA and linguistic), that the Philippines was the ground zero for Austronesian expansion into the Pacific as you said. Aboriginal Taiwanese came from northern Philippines as they are clearly closely related to the Igorot in culture, language and DNA. Our tattoo tools can be carbondated as far back as 4000 years old. The Philippines was settled through the route from mainland Asia, and Sundalan. Later back migration from Indonesia (Borneo) to Central Philippines Visayas.

There was a lot of maritime migration in the past. Our lands were populated by several groups of people at different times.

Hi, I was wondering where came the "Metalworking" brought in to the Philippines islands around 4000-6000 years ago, as described at 2:10 - 2:24？The archaeological news I read about the excavations along the coastal lines of both Mainland China (Liangdao (~8000 years ago) & Tanshi Mountain (~5000 years ago)) and Taiwan island (Dabenkeng (~6000 years ago) & Fengbitou (~5000 years ago)) did not show evidences of metalworking. You may have read that two bronze arrow heads were excavated in Dabenkeng site, but since their size and style are very similar to those of Shang and Zhou Dynasties of ancient China (ca. 3700 years ago onwards), plus no local metalworking site was found, whether these two arrow heads were imported is under dispute.

Dan and Manasah were just across the Bering Straight in Tartaria, China used to be part of The Tartarian Empire, the Haida had trade with China; and the Haida are related to the Polynesians. They were slave traders like Abraham and his family and they sailed all the way to New Zealand and back to the Queen Charlotte Islands too. In Hebrew and Hawaiian He and Ha is the breath of God. The Masoretic scribes changed the A's to E's about a thousand years after Jesus was crucified. The I in Haida would be a Yod in Hebrew, and that's God's hand, like the I in Hawaii. The last syllable in Haida contains the first two letters of Dan's name. Hawaii could be YHWH backwards, HWHY. In Hebrew HAVA can be translated as Palace or Being. The Yod at the end could make Hawaii be translated as Palace of Yah. The W in Hawaii can also be pronounced like a V, exactly the same as in Hebrew. It should be remembered that the tribe of Dan left Egypt around 1500 bc, but the name of Dan was being used by Ham and Japheth, SiDON, DeDAN and MeDAN right after they got off of the ark at least a thousand years earlier; Abram was a Brahman, and Dan "the serpent" was named after DANu the serpent in the Mahabharata. Baptisms, born again doctrine, Ash Wednesday and rosary beads all have Vedic origins too. Linguists teach that all of our words were originally names for the sun as the shekina of God. Every proper etymology reaches the sun. Dawn is when the sun rises. Dan's (the judges) color is red. Red sky at night, red sky at morning is the judge to a sailor; and Dan was a sailor... The sun's reflection on water is often refered to as a serpent...

I commend the effort of this, since the pre-colonial history of Philippines is hardly taught in our schools. However, please do more extensive research and verify your information from historians before posting, to avoid spreading false information and unverified theories. The Polynesian backward migration is false so please find a way to make your viewers aware of that. Also, you mentioned the Manila-Acapulco galleon trade, which is not pre-colonial, but a colonial trade route established by the Spanish Empire. You could have included the Maritime Jade Trade route instead, which the early PH polities are a major player of. Second, some key information is lacking. You barely talked about the Malay migration waves (1st and 2nd) which is the reason why most Filipinos are mostly of Malay ancestry; and didn't mention other powerful kingdoms like Cebu, Madyas, and Caboloan (Pangasinan), etc. Finally, there were no empires and imperialism in pre-colonial Philippines, the political structure of our early kingdoms and polities, followed the "Mandala system." Be distinct with the terms you use to avoid misconceptions.

While it's possible that the migration could have gone the other way, the prevailing theory is that Austronesian peoples originated in Taiwan and later migrated to the Philippines, other parts of Southeast Asia, Polynesia and other parts of the Pacific, and even as far as Africa (i.e. Madagascar). This is supported by archaeological evidence as well as linguistic and genetic studies. While there is always room for new discoveries and alternative theories, most scholars agree that Austronesian folks initially came from Taiwan and then expanded from there.

It sounds like it was always colonised. Or does colonisation only refer to western countries?

The biggest asset of the Philippines is the knowledge of the English language. The difficult job of the Thomasites to convert the official Spanish language into English is very commendable. It's also amazing that ancient languages from the many regions have survived but slowly fading away. English and Tagalog and the hybrid TagLish seem to be dominating and spreading fast.

🇵🇭🙏🏽♥️

It's good but the Philippine archipelago was central to the Lapita cultural tradition that Polynesians inherited. The archipelago was more of the staging ground where colonization of Polynesia and Madagascar through admixture with those cultures that they encountered rather than being the overall recipient. There is no doubt that precolonial Philippines and the islands had at one-point bilateral trade. They did after all find the smallest of the world's islands by reading the stars and observing birds without the aid of any modern compass. Why wouldn’t they be able to go back and forth at the height of their maritime exploration? This is also the reason why Taiwan is not ever a part of China. The original people of Taiwan also came from mainland Eurasia thousands of years before there was ever a unified China, which is composed of many ethnic groups and kingdoms many thousands of years after the ancestors of islanders already left. It was only after the colonial period that Taiwan through the colonial powers intervention that they destroyed the culture and much of the population of Taiwan making it ripe for the Qing (a foreign dynasty who conquered the Han and established a dynasty in China) by default to own it since the Dutch East India company had other colonial "possessions" not subjected to piracy and competition with other colonial powers. In fact, the Japanese was the last colonial power to officially governed Taiwan and after their loss in WW2 have agreed to give up Taiwan in treaty of San Francisco in 1945. It was only after the defeat of the Kuomintang the led them to flee the mainland establishing a predominantly Han majority and considered itself as the true government of China. At first, the government was itself Han-centric and further oppressed the natives. However, unlike the mainland, their culture and laws subsequently became more democratic and rather than their Han counterparts in the mainland who stuck to a racist ideology of forced Sinicization, they were finally recognized and given the right to live their lives and tradition. After all, their ancestors were the original owners and founders of the island formerly known as Formosa. Today, there are at least 2.38% of Taiwan’s population who identifies as indigenous living their ancestor’s tradition. Many have already intermarried with ethnic Han. This is the reason the majority of Taiwanese do NOT even consider themselves as “Chinese,” especially after seeing how Hong Kong and Macau were lied to and the CCP in the mainland never owned Taiwan. This is even more so in the younger generation of Taiwanese. While the Kuomintang came from China, and Japan gave it up, it was unclear who they gave it back to and for many years was left unanswered since the US supported their government during the revolution and it did not become a major issue since their transition to democracy. That of course is now being challenged by the CCP with their revisionist history so they can claim the island just like they illegally annexed Tibet, Inner Mongolia, Manchuria (The founders of the Qing), and Xinjiang. They were only able to do so given their influence in the UN having a permanent seat of the security council along with the support of the Soviet Union after of course continually threatening "nuclear war." In fact, if it was not for the Soviets who wanted a buffer state between the two, they would have taken the whole of Mongolia too and forced them to become “Chinese,” just like they did in the "autonomous region" of Inner Mongolia---which is neither autonomous nor a region of "China." So, what the Chinese did is to just grab as much of Mongolia as they can without angering the Soviets, which is now the autonomous region of “Inner Mongolia.” There are unfortunately many CCP propaganda that fails to discuss this history which really highlights why China or the CCP NEVER owned Taiwan and has developed into its own mature country. Even Zheng He, a famous Chinese navigator touted by China to the West as if somehow akin to early western explorers, only closely hugged the coast of Eurasia. In fact, even after “China” was conquered by the Mongol empire, their fleet was completely decimated by a regular storm known to many islanders. This is because the “Chinese,” no matter what dynasty were known to be poor mariners and have not been able to replicate the blue water technology of islanders who have navigated their way to Micronesia, Polynesia, and as far as Easter Island. Their culture, technology, and even genetics even show that they have even found their way to the Indian ocean and admixed with locals in Madagascar. That is the reason why they never had a foothold in Taiwan and fell by default to the Qing who rounded up the Ming (Han) rebels who fled there during the colonial period. Who then were eventually ousted by the Japanese and became a place where American allies fled after the communist party took control of the Mainland. The communist was only able to do so by their cowardice, by hiding during WW2 while the Kuomintang fought the Japanese. Once the war was over, Mao and his comrades came out of their hiding places and fought the decimated Kuomintang force which led them to Taiwan who had no official ownership but by then known to the mainlanders earlier in the colonial period when “China” under the Manchus itself loss Hong Kong, Vladivostok, and Macau. “Chinese,” traded with many islanders who are led by many tribal leaders who are always at war with each other but they were never “Chinese,” and unlike their brothers of what is now South Eastern China who were forcedly Sinicized, there was NEVER a foreign dynasty that ever did that in any of the islands and it is only through default that it ever landed to the Qing and again by default that it landed to the Kuomintang who has been ousted from power in Taiwan for closely allying itself to the CCP.

just an observation, maybe one reason that some of its people suffer identity crisis is because of its diversity. A mixture of different bloods flowing through their veins moreover upon the colonization of Spain the "colonial mentality" developed.

Their appearance too is so diversified specially now that most Filipinos intermarry people with the western world making the Negritos nowadays minority. Most do share "kayumangi" skin tone because of the ☀️ sun. The Philippines is actually in the middle of the equator.
