Phylogeny and ancient DNA of Sus provides insights into neolithic expansion in Island Southeast Asia and Oceania.

TL;DR: Archeological and genetic evidence shows these pigs were certainly introduced to islands east of the Wallace Line, including New Guinea, and that so-called “wild” pigs within this region are most likely feral descendants of domestic pigs introduced by early agriculturalists.
Journal ArticleDOI

New evidence for a 67,000-year-old human presence at Callao Cave, Luzon, Philippines

TL;DR: Morphometric analysis of the Callao metatarsal indicates that it has a gracile structure, close to that observed in other small-bodied Homo sapiens, and falls within the morphological and size ranges of Homo habilis and H. floresiensis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first settlement of remote oceania: The Philippines to the Marianas

TL;DR: The authors compare pottery assemblages in the Marianas and the Philippines to claim endorsement for a first human expansion into the open Pacific around 1500 BC and propose an epic pioneering voyage of men and women, with presumably some cultivated plants but apparently no animals.
