In Asia, the most recent late archaic human fossils were found in Thailand (125-100 ka), the Philippines (58-24 ka), Malaysia (c. 40 ka), and Sri Lanka (c.36 ka). [4] The artifacts from these sites include partial skeleton, crania, deep skull, and other related skeletons indicate that modern human migrated to Asia earlier than the western theory might have discussed.
This would prove that over 100,000 years ago human populations of Homo sapiens exploited the intertidal zone for food purposes. The coastal route theory is primarily used to describe the initial peopling of West Asia, India, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, Australia, Near Oceania, and East Asia beginning between roughly 70,000 and 50,000 years ago.
A map of Southeast Asia. The region of Southeast Asia is considered a possible place for the evidence of archaic human remains that could be found due to the pathway between Australia and mainland Southeast Asia, where the migration of multiple early humans has occurred out of Africa.
They assimilated earlier Pleistocene to early Holocene human overland migrations through Sundaland like the Papuans and the Negritos in Island Southeast Asia. [144] [145] The Austronesian expansion was the last and the most far-reaching Neolithic human migration event. [148]
East and Southeast Asian lineage — refers to an ancestral population that primarily contributed to humans living in East and Southeast Asia, much of Remote Oceania, as well as Siberia and the Americas. Represented by ancient Tianyuan and Hoabinhian specimens and present-day East and Southeast Asians.
Genetic evidences normally give the first human migration through Southeast Asia (from Wallacea to then a supercontinent called Sahul) around 55,000 years ago, [21] [22] the oldest estimate being 65,000 years ago. [23] [24] This implies that humans migration into Wallacea must have been much earlier; but, direct evidences are still lacking. [11]
According to Human Rights Watch (HRW), this kind of migration was considered an internal movement because the British administered Burma as a province of India, [19] although the native population viewed the migration of labourers negatively. After the independence of Myanmar in 1948, the government declared this migration illegal.
Hypothetical migration patterns of paternal human lineages Haplogroup O, also known as O-M175, is primarily found among populations in Southeast Asia and China. Looking at Y-DNA studies, it would seem that East Asian paternal lineages expanded in Asia approximately 50,000 years ago.
