1.What is the peopling of the Philippines?
The various subcultures present in the Philippines are all still founded on the same
principles and values that we collectively refer to as the Philippine culture. Despite subtle
variations, none of these subcultures can be considered less "Filipino" than the other; each can
stand independently, yet all are unified and this is a widely recognized fact. This does not imply
that what is considered "Filipino" is not actually Filipino, though. A culture is not always impure
or the Filipino identity degraded by outside influence. What enables a nation to shape its actual
character is its ability to be flexible and embrace outside influences. Despite having similarities
to other Austronesian nations, each one is able to make cultural impacts unique to itself in order
to exist independently of one another. However, despite their independence, all of these nations
are bound together by the Austronesian.
2.What is the theory that best explain the peopling of the Philippines?
Even though it has been repeatedly criticized since the 1970s for misrepresenting the
"racial origins" of Filipinos, the "migration waves" hypothesis of how the Philippines was
populated has remained immensely popular. Some geneticists have been gathering DNA samples
from populations in regional centers and ethnolinguistic groupings across the nation since the
late 1990s. Numerous studies have been published in genetics publications, but the data and
analyses have only reached the experts.
3. What are the four peopling of the Philippines?
The four peopling of the Philippines are four possible routes of early colonization of the
Philippine archipelago the northern route, from Taiwan through the Luzon Strait, the southwest
route, from Borneo through Palawan, the central south route, from east of Borneo crossing the
Sulu Archipelago towards western Mindanao, lastly the Southeast Asia.
4.Chararcterize the Paleolithic period and Neolithic period.
Pre-history's Paleolithic Era, often known as the Old Stone Age, lasted from roughly 2.6
million to about 10,000 years ago. In many regions of the world, the Neolithic Era or New Stone
Age began around 10,000 BC and came to an end between 4500 and 2000 BC. There were
several different human species present throughout the Paleolithic era, but only one persisted
until the Neolithic era. Paleolithic people traveled widely as small groups. Their survival was
largely dependent on their surroundings and temperature, and they employed simple stone tools.
Neolithic humans were able to colonize a single area after learning about agriculture and animal
husbandry.
5.How the first population of the Philippines reached our country.
With a population of more than 100 million, the Philippines is one of the most populated
and rapidly expanding nations on the planet. The Philippines is a melting pot of ethnicities. Only
15,000 of the original inhabitants, the Negrito, who are made up of around 25 different tribes
dispersed across the islands, remain today. The majority of Filipinos are members of different
Malayo-Polynesian groups, such as the Tagalog, Cebuano, Ilocano, Hiligaynon Ilonggo, and
others, according to the 2000 census, which is the most recent accessible with information on

ethnicity. The nation is also home to other more recent immigrant groups, including as those
from Latin America, China, Spain, and the United States.
