Philippines and northeastern Australia The extirpated Philippine population was described as the subspecies G. a. luzonica on the basis of differences with the Indian (G. a. antigone) and Indochinese subspecies (G. a. sharpii), but genetic studies indicate that it was identical to the Australian subspecies.

The first four floors of the museum is managed by the National Museum of the Philippines while the fifth floor is managed by Museo Dabawenyo- the city's local museum.

Homo luzonensis, also known as Callao Man and locally called "Ubag" after a mythical caveman, [2] [3] is an extinct, possibly pygmy, species of archaic human from the Late Pleistocene of Luzon, the Philippines.
In addition, I also found a paper documenting the probable diet of Philippine proboscideans, but it has no mentions on what speculated species were the dwarf stegodon. It is however, provided with the information being it is a Luzon specimen and that it is different from a S. luzonensis (evident from a strict C4 diet of S. luzonensis).
The Rizal Archaeological Site pushed back the first known human activity in the Philippines 10 times earlier. Prior to the excavation, the oldest fossil discovered in the country was the foot bone found in 2010 in Callao Cave, Cagayan Valley. The bone was dated at least 67,000 years old. [3]
Articles related to the Stegodontidae, an extinct family of Stegodon-like proboscideans that was endemic to Africa and Asia from the Miocene (15.97 mya) [1] to the Late Pleistocene, with some studies suggesting that some survived into the Holocene in China (until as recently as 4.1 thousand years ago), [2] although this is disputed.
