Philippines History

Archeological, and paleontological discoveries show that Humans existed in Palawan around 30,000 to 50,000 BC. The aboriginal people of the Philippine Islands, the Negritos, are an Australo-Melanesian people who arrived in the Philippines at least 30,000 years ago. The Austronesian people, originated from populations of Taiwanese aborigines that migrated from mainland Asia approximately 6000 years ago, who settled in the islands, and eventually migrated to Indonesia, Malaysia, and soon after, to the Polynesian islands, and Madagascar.

The Islands were known as Lusung Dao to the Chinese, Suvarnadvipa to the Hindus, Zabag to the Arabs, and Persians and Chryse to the Greeks which means island of gold, as described by the geographer Ptolemy. The Philippine Islands had cultural ties with Malaysia, Indonesia, and India during ancient times, as proven by the extent of Tantric, and Hindu-Buddhist influence in the area. There were also trade relations with China, and other neighboring countries as early as the 5th century.

Islam was brought to the Philippines by traders, and proselytizers from Malaysia, Indonesia and Arabia. By the 13th century, Islam was established in the Sulu Archipelago and spread to Mindanao the Visayas and Luzon by 1565. Muslim converts established Islamic communities, and there were several states ruled by Datus, Rajahs, or Sultans.

However, there was still no unified political state that encompassed the archipelago now known as the the Philippines and the area was ruled by competing thalassocracies like the Confederacy of Namayan the Dynasty of Tondo the Butuan Rajahnate, and the sultanates of Maguindanao and Sulu some of which were under the suzerainty of the larger Malayan empires of Srivijaya, Majapahit and the Brunei Sultanate.
