➜ In 2007, a group of archaeologists led by Dr. Armand
Mijares of U.P. Diliman discovered a foot bone in
Callao Cave in the town of Peñablanca, Cagayan.
The said skeletal remain–specifically the third
metatarsal of the foot–is said to be “the earliest
human fossil found in the Asia-Pacific region.”
➜ Based on a method called “uranium-series dating,” it
was also revealed that the foot bone is
approximately 67,000 years old, predating the
“Tabon Man”–long been thought to be the country’s
earliest human remains–which is only 50,000 years
old.
