    The Wave Migration Theory is the most widely known of the prehistoric theories of

    population development in the Philippines. The first migrants were what Beyer caked the
    “Dawnmen”. Migration Theory is where group of migrants that have lived through the
    Philippines in the past. Core Population Theory A less rigid version of the earlier wave migration
    theory is the Core Population Theory first proposed by anthropologist Felipe Landa Jocano of the
    University of the Philippines. This theory holds that there weren’t clear discrete waves of
    migration. Instead, it suggests early inhabitants of Southeast Asia were of the same ethnic group
    with similar culture, but through a gradual process over time driven by environmental factors,
    differentiated themselves from one another.

    The Marco-Pavon Antigua Leyendas is the source, and the only source of the
    Kalatiaw Code. The Code therefore can be no more valid than the forgery which contains it. Its
    catalogue of punishments alone sounds like the fantasies of some uninhibited sadist-plunging the
    hand into boiling water three times, cutting off the fingers, laceration with thorns, exposure to
    ants, swimming for three hours, drowning weighted with stones, beating to death or being
    burned, boiled, stoned, crushed with weights, cut to pieces, or thrown to crocodiles.

    It is the time when they waited for daylight, and they discovered that they had run
    aground. “We are lucky,” one said. “Now we can go around and look for wood for new paddles.
    After all, there is no land without any trees.” with his small axe, he immediately started cutting a
    bamboo which was about 16 inches in diameter. He did not make any dent in it and a voice was
    heard. “Hey don’t hit me!” Since there was nobody, he lifted his axe, but he heard the voice,
    “You don’t obey me, don’t hit me!” He was afraid and at the third time he raises his ax he chose
    another spot to cut the bamboo. This time there was no sound. The split the bamboo, a
    discovered a beautiful woman inside. The lady in the bamboo told him that she was there hiding
    from a prophet who she refused to marry after learning that the life of a prophet is not an easy
    one. Like the myths and legend, there people and other mythical creatures can be seen in an
    island and where people tend to be in their downfall. This is the breaking point when they realize
    something.
