I think there existed a huge land mass (Google Earth), which connected all of Indonesia, the Philipines, Australia, China, Micronesia, Melanesia and the Indochina. But in the middle of geographic history, about 70% of that landmass has submerged due to the polar caps melting and many ancient Austronesians fled to Australia, Indonesia and China. That's why modern East Asians, Austronesians and the Australian Aborigins share certain haplotype genes but the most of the Siberians don't.
@MrUsoRasta I read that southern china speak tai-kadai & they have close affinities with austronesians & sino-tibetan. Tai-Kadai is also spoken to some parts of southeast asia specially in Thailand & Laos so basically this people are inside the mainland southeast asia with the Austro-Asiatic speaking people. The main or the origin of austronesian speaking people specially the malayo-polynesian is in maritime or island southeast asia and oceana that's why Malayo-Polynesian.
@MrUsoRasta But most of the Austronesian in the mainland southeast asia are near the shore & which tribe in Southern China that connect to Austronesian? Who are those southern chinese? because if we say chinese which is i think majority of the population is han chinese, some of them are tai-kadai,sino-tibetan, and austro-asiatic, I read the Gaoshan in Southern China is part of Austronesian family.
There's actually 3 kind of language family spoken in South East Asia : Tai-Kadai, Austro-Asiatic and the Austronesian. Most of the Austronesian speaking people are South East Asia located in Maritime South East Asia and those Austronesian speaking in Mainland South East Asia usually located near the shore.
I thought Astronesians have dark skin, but I noticed some of them have fair or lighter skin compare to others. Pardon my ignorance. Even the facial features differs from each other. Great video.

@felixthefox100 a lot of Philippine dialect belongs to malayo-polynesian which is a subgroup of Austronesian. We all shared the same language family. Pangasinense, Cebuano, Ilocano, Kapampangan, Tagalog, etc. most of the dialects belong to this language family.
Men of Austronesian, East Asian, Amerindian, and Inuit origin have no coarse body hair on their chest, back, or butt. They find it hard to grow real mustaches or beards. Women have only very soft body hair as compared to Europeans, Middle Easterns, and South Asians. In general of light to dark brown skin, brown eyes, and black hair. This is probably because they picked up less Neanderthal genes as compared to Europeans as Homo Sapiens came out of Africa 70,000 years ago.
@RoGumbI but i'm not really agree with you..most of men from pacific in polynesian islands triangle appeared to have beard, only the Austronesian people in southeast asia almost doesn't have beard because influence from east asia genes..
Using the 80-20 rule, Filipinos are basically of 80% Austronesian stock and 20% other (Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Arab, Latin European, and even Amerindian due to mixed Spanish from the Americas). The Austronesian stock came originally probably from South Central Asia approx 10,000 years ago. Compare this to Amerindians who also came from somewhere in North Central Asia approx 15,000 years ago. The original Austronesian and Amerindian stocks are now gone from mainland Asia.
@RoGumbI yes, i really agree with your opinion..austronesian and amerindian came from central asia..amerindian or native american come from north of central asia,while the austronesian come from south of central asia..they migrated far until reach america continent and to the north and south pacific islands..
@RoGumbI 1.5% of Philippines population is pure Chinese, but 20% of Filipinos have Chinese blood. The other races are very small amounts and are not part of the rank and file Filipino.
@TrueAltaic : most Indonesians do not have a mix of china but their face resembles china. as was the case in the Sundanese, ethnic tribe in Sumatra, borneo (dayak), some tribes in sulawesi. but we also have some european blend.Indonesia is a country that has a race and culture are very diverse, which makes Indonesia a little differently.
I think South Central Asia are more on Austro-Asiatic although they said that the Austro-Asiatic have also connection with the Austronesian but it belongs to 2 different family. It's like these 2 group of language are brothers. Most of Austronesians are in South East Asia.
I see people's from Polynesia and some Micronesia faces and their body's physical resemblance to latin American rather than the people of southeast asia. We are all one family with the same language, but different ancestry. Austronesian people are an ethnic group native who came first in Indonesia, but the people of Indonesia that now they are descendants from mainland asia (daic) based on their father's descent.
@kartikasweet you got your answer.. ! polynesian today, look more native american (not latin) and they speak austronesian..this happened cause they area in pacific not far from america continent..and southeast asian look more mongols because they area near asian mainland and they also speak in austronesian language..both polynesian and southeast asian has same ancestor,that's why they speak in the same language..
@lagodaxnian : i see them exceedingly beautiful , face the polynesian and some micronesia similar white people with the little brown they are cauccasian of asia.
for me they are a mixture of asian and white = polynesian + some micronesia ._.
@kartikasweet that's polynesian today..look more caucasian..beside,they also believe if they ancestor is one of the 12 lost israeli tribes..so they may be already has caucasian features that come from middle east..you must be watch other video titled "Austronesian Migratory Dispersal"..that's really interesting..and i think i'm agree with that analyze..
@kartikasweet plus the polynesian has long history of colonialism..even some of area in polynesia or south pacific still under colonial rules..exp : French Polynesia (Tahiti) colonized by French, Hawaii colonized by USA, American Samoa colonized by USA, Wallis and Futuna colonized by French, Rapa Nui become part of Chile (country in south america) territory, new zealand is independent country but not 100% can rules their country,still in British rules..that's why many today they more like white
its good to see new blood. new people. you do not see many races in local towns in USA so when you see a diff race for the first time you think wrong ideas who they might be.
@atnmsfts yes..in this video,all rapa nui looks mixed..but in easter island, they population with pure rapa nui blood is about 60% from population..so still majority on that island..about 39% are mestizo (Rapa Nui mixed spanish,especially spaniard descent from chile mainland in south america),and about 1% is amerindian (American-indian, most are mapuche from chile mainland and amerindian from Peru), Rapa Nui population in 2011 is about 5,034
@lagodaxnian glad that they still preserved their culture and their language which is austronesian. they are racially mixed already same also those in southeast asia which is closer to the east asia & others due to colonization and intermarried & those micronesian, polynesian, melanesian or austronesian of oceana due too.
Wat a crock full of shit don't include south pacific islander polynesian into ur falsified info we are our own people n proud of it! How insulting don't discriminate us ever again
I was just wondering if there were Austronesian languages that existed in precolonial America. Since most of the native tongues there are now extinct and have been replaced with Spanish, Portuguese, French, and English there's no way to determined. But if Polynesians were able to trade with the natives of America, how is it not possible for them to live in that big continent ? My guess is that there were Austronesians in precolonial America.
I luv how Filipino-Americans use Austronesian as an excuse to b called "Pacific Islander". associating themselves with Samoans, Tongans, Hawaiians.....etc.
u dont see Russians, Ukrainians, Serbs or Croats associating w each other becayse of "Church Slavonic"
@deeeEeEEEeEee33eem LOL! Why would they make a cultural and genetically proven fact as an excuse? lol! Base on your profile I'm going to guess your Vietnamese-American. If you refuse to accept or associate yourself with your next of keen, the Chinese, then do not spread have to those people who are wanting to trace and their ancient roots! I suggest you read more about the Austronesian people and how LARGE and wide spread they are on this WORLD even before colonizations before spreading hate.
@deeeEeEEEeEee33eem LOL! Why would they make a cultural and genetically proven fact as an excuse? lol! Base on your profile I'm going to guess your Vietnamese-American.

@deeeEeEEEeEee33eem fuck you and those Fil-Ams! Filipinos are Austronesians just like the real malaysians and indonesians!!! those damn Samoans tongans hawaiians aka the NEGROS of the pacific all came from ASIA. Filipino are Asian but with a dominant hispanic culture. and btw who the fuck wants to be Pacific islander? they are just bunch of half naked negros in the pacific.
Austronesian is term of Linguistic , There is Austronesian race , so Austronesian are the peoples who speak one of Austronesia Family Language.
the analogy is Indian,Iranian,Anglo saxonic,Tetonic, germanic,Franco are speking Indo European family language but it doesnt mean any Indo European Race
you cant really comapare pacific islanders to southeast asians why cuz pacific islanders came from all over the world america melanesia asia and euroupe all these mix is what made pacific islanders thats why our features look like mexican asian europeans and black the language tho is austronesian but the people are very differend from asian people
@kartikasweet you should look it on MR.Google! indonesia are austronesians, in fact the most autronesian people's indonesian! so does filipino, malaysian, brunei, maori, malagasy, and native hawaiian :)

there is a debate that the Olmecs are the polynesians - and that movie Apocolypto. that was actually polynesians and the Mayans are the Mexicans, that is why lots of islanders n mexicans have similar features. not all Native American Indians look alike - some actually look poly, n others look like asians. u might not know in the 1800 - 1900's Pacific Islanders went intoo Slavery in Australia, Fiji n South America - thats why i want to know, who r we according 2 the bible - Deut 28 - captivity
@vaea46 After 64 years they finally say that Polynesians are genetically related to the Indians in "South America". Polynesians and the South America theory is somewhat finally accepted. I already knew Polynesians were related to the Mayans as you can see the familiarity with our cultures and ancient artifacts.
what i wanna know is.. WHO ARE WE according to the Bible - Noah had 3 sons - Shem, Japheth and Ham,, who are we as a people.. are we part of the 12 Tribes of israel who are in Captivity. are we from the tribe of Naphtali who's hind is Let Lose and dwells in the South & West and has been blessed with Beauty and favor of the Most High. Please if anyone knows. let me know.. i know 4 a fact Pacific Isanders were in South America b4 the 1500's according to the Chicken bones and certain objects.
@gameplayerucool2 you dont know nothing then .... even natives madagascar island in africa (merina people) are your brother ....our ancestor sail from taiwan (according bellwod) to hawaii and even further to madagascar , our genectic are close related ... our language comes from one single mother language ,you say tangata whenua ,kanaka honua , anak benua (malay) ... our counting is similliar ex 5 = lima , mata =eyes .go llok up & google it
u know what if thats how taiwan aborigine looks like they i do see pacific islander features favoring alot of the aborigine taiwanese people. they are beautiful..b/c i am samoan n i get philipino or half asian alot. or hispanic w/asian
salam sejahtera saudara nusantaraku , saya melayu utara malaysia . orang melayu indonesia tahu tak bercakap dalam loghat melayu malaysia ? terutama bahagian utara malaysia , di malaysia kami faham bahasa indonesia , tetapi tak tahu pula indonesia boleh faham atau tidak bahasa kami ?
@LaChicaLesbianaxxx lol @ chinitos..ur rite..about Pacific islanders lookin more less asianish..alot of p.i's can pass to be hispanic n black n asian lol or white n indian idk lol but i think so hehhe
Such an Amazing video!..since then i knew Filipinos arent really Asian..i knew we are something different..i did a research before and i found out that our race came from the race so called Austronesian...No Wonder why i some Filipinos looks like Pacific Islander ( some people thought Filipinos arent asian, instead PI or american territory.. ..woot..i just love to see all these connections <3
@gameplayerucool2 i agree with u, however we do have similiar appearances to malays n indonesians, i could swear they look polynesian if i didnt know any better
@LaChicaLesbianaxxx Ovbiously there is a physical difference. For example, the influence of the Portuguese in Hawai'i many years ago have change the appearance of the Hawaiians. When you say Taiwan, there are two groups of people, the chinese and the aborigines, the aborigines are the ones relevant to this video. Again, its the language similarities around all the islands suggesting that they all came from one place.
@LaChicaLesbianaxxx Its the language thats important here, not the race. For example, In Taiwan, there are people from mainland China, and then there are the Aborigines. The aborigines in Taiwan along with all the other mentioned groups in the video share the common Austronesian language. Although they vary greatly from island to island, the very basic roots all come from one originating place.
@LaChicaLesbianaxxx Obviously over thousands of years there will be a physcal difference. For example in Hawai'i, the portugese influence has changed the appearance of Hawaiians. Again, what this video is suggesting is the language. Its the language thats important here, not the race.

Although they vary greatly from island to island, the very basic roots all come from one originating place.
@gameplayerucool2 No bro. Indos and malays are NOT asians. The word asian is a terminology given by the white man to distinguish us geographically! If you compare native indos to chinese, bro there is nothing similar about em! Indonesia is an archipelago, and their tradition and clothing and appearances are similar to that of other polynesians and micronesians. Go to the indonesia and the malay countries you will see what i mean. What da hell is ASIAN anyway.
hope you do a remake... since they are many request to put other ethnicity (like khadazan, moluccan, aztect, etc) even me want to complaint hehe; Please include BANJARIANs how dare u malay forget about Banjar but u put here the bugis, java & minang ... ya and one more tribe, the Phatani people (they are mostly Austronesian but live under Siamese rule)
@gameplayerucool2 yeah we did come from Taiwan but don't you think south americans mixed with polynesians at one point cause some samoans (like myself) look kinda mexican due to having the brown eyes, darkish skin tone and black hair hehe except islanders are usually taller i think.... if you compare the appearance of a micronesian to a south-east asian then there isn't much difference because they're so relatively distant to each other
@DragonTrixter Of course, probably many years ago, Samoans did have some contact with South Americans. However, I think what this video is trying to show is the language similarities. For example, Im half seediq from Taiwan, I know that the seediq language, 5 is lima, also in Samoan. And 7 is pitu, and in Samoan Fitu. So the root of the language is similar in a sense suggesting that some time ago these pacific islanders all come from one originating place.
I'am happy to know that the bloodlines of our races are speard nearly half over the world. When we combining the population of every countries we would be among the biggest races and for sure there is a lot of economics and business opputuinities. No wonder the legendary Admiral of Melakan Sultanate Laksamana Hang Tuah has mentioned in his famaous speach "Takkan Melayu Hilang Didunia". Maybe he already knew that some 600 years ago that this race will not lost frm world.
to all hsha..this people r not even pure themselves rather mixed with americans people the thru austresian r dark..flat nose curly hair..fat..what is this hawaii.people there r mixed not even pure dont realyy know who is real hawaiian n not ecept asians..
@YuDumPhuck not even these videos r all mixed with american dont u forget there are all under america for now bcoz they have agrreement for 20 years america will support them that why they kind fat litlle bit bigger than those people who dont eat faster..
@LaChicaLesbianaxx well.. it seems you havent lived in those countries at all. If you're a south american, I'd ask you where do you think those Indians come from !?!?!? They look like chinitos as well....
I'm really sorry, but these things freak me out sooo much!

Im a Filipino raced in Mindanao which is part of Austronesian people. Im a native here and i must say, we really have the same feature in faces. hahaha.
FILIPINO!!.. we are austronesian! revised genetic scicentif studies of the PRESENT concluded that malay isnt the proper term for filipinos, WE ARE AUSTRONESIAN!
I'm pure i think and yes there's not much pure Austronesian in Philippines.
But we do exist LOL.We are extremely good looking dark brown and big boned.What consitutes an Austronesian? Actually my dad has Chinese/spanish in his side.But I took to my mother side who are definitely Austronesian.
@16and30 Pure austronesian? There's such a thing? Then who do you think are the piure austornesian? And these are mixed? With whom? Would you mind telling me?
@modsJUTSU this is Rapa Nui Song (sing by matato'a),the native people in Easter Island.and yes,Rapa Nui people very closely related with the Maoris in Aotearoa (New Zealand).they have many similarities in terms of language, cultural and beliefs.both rapa nui and Maori are polynesians.Rapa Nui people is Maohi and Maori is Maori.
@sayyid14 saya sudah bosan dengan channel yang terus ngajak berantem.maka dari itu,cukup nikmati saja video ini.saya akan jawab tanya dari anda :
1. Istana pagaruyung memang terbakar,tapi sudah dilakukan rehab,dan dananya jauh lebih besar ini linknya :
2.timor leste tak akan bergabung dengan indonesia,saya fikir mereka punya harga diri sebagai bangsa,sekali memutuskan untuk berpisah maka akan selalu seperti itu.
3. mereka sulit untuk merdeka,karna perjanjian antara negara kolonial dengan PBB
@lagodaxnian Maksud kamu ada orang2 Malaysia ajak berantem?? biarkan saja la.sy pun ada gitu org2 Indo nyerang2 sy dgn kata2 yg menyakitkan apa lagi menyentuh soal kesukuan iaitu Melayu.sperti Malayu itu dari kata Jawa pamalayu iaitu maling dari hutan,Srivijaya itu Indonesia bkn malaysia.Malaysia curi budaya minang,curi budaya,malaysia gak punya budaya 1 pun,malaysia tidak pernah berjuang,berperang sama inggeris. & mcm2 itu semua sensitif.tp tak semuanya org indo gitu.ramai juga membela Malaysia
@lagodaxnian Gak semua org Malaysia suka gaduh @ ribut dgn negara jiran apa lagi sebangsa bkn sapa2,sy tau anda pun benci jika org Malaysia mulai dulu dan anda akan balas jugakan.Saya harap kamu bikin video baru ya..tentang Architecture Austronesia,rumah,istana,candi etc..kamu ada channel baru?? PM sy ok..
@sayyid14 sambungan yang tadi : point 3.* Irian Barat (Papua) “bergabung” dengan Republik Indonesia pada tanggal 1 Mei 1963 diatur melalui dua Perjanjian Internasional, yaitu :
1. Perjanjian New York tanggal 15 Agustus 1962.
2. Perjanjian Roma tanggal 30 September 1962
Dalam Perjanjian itu ditentukan bahwa Indonesia berkuasa atas Tanah Papua terhitung sejak tanggal 1 Mei 1963,dan semua negara di dunia diatur berdasarkan wilayah kekuasaan imperialis,seluruh jajahan belanda akan jadi indonesia.
@sayyid14 sambungan...termasuk Papua,wilayah yang dijajah inggeris akan jadi wilayah malaya (malaysia) termasuk dulu brunei dan singapura,wilayah kekuasaan spanyol akan jadi
di wilayah filipina (termasuk sulu dan mindanao) dan wilayah kekuasaan perancis menjadi indo-cina yang akhirnya terbagi menjadi vietnam,kamboja..dan semua ini disetujui oleh PBB..maka jika ingin memisahkan diri maka perlu menuntut PBB terlebih dahulu untuk mencabut hukum berdasarkan wilayah koloni (jajahan)
@lagodaxnian jika tidak,maka sulit untuk menuntut merdeka.lain casenya dengan timor leste.timor leste merupakan wilayah koloni portugal di masa lampau.sementara indonesia terbentuk berdasarkan wilayah-wilayah koloni belanda.maka,indonesia tak berhak mempertahankan timor leste sebagai bagian darinya.maka,diadakan referendum menentukan kemerdekaan,dan dimenangkan oleh pihak yang mendukung kemerdekaan.indonesia harus berbesar hati.lepaslah timor leste dan menjadi negara berdaulat.
@lagodaxnian Lihat di Goa India adalah Kolonial Portugis India merebutnya kembali.seperti Indonesia lakukan pada Timor,maka sah itu Hak Indonesia,menyatukan bangsa sermpun.Mungkin kerna Australia menekan2 Indonesia lagian Timor kaya dgn Gas dan& Minyak..saya tak setuju jika banyak negara2 rumpun di pecah2d dalam banyak2 negara..saya pasti Indonesia akan kuat dan kaya satu hari nanti.US pun dalam 300 tahun untuk maju inikan Indonesia baru 60++thun.sy ngerti ngurus negara kepulauan bukan gampang..
@lagodaxnian :My friend ..majority of people in indonesians are of daic descent , study 2010 Austronesian found in indonesia only <20% , and papua melanesia 8% found in papua , maluku.
Daic indonesia come from northem china/ thai mainlain..Majority DNA / genetik indonesia more close to viet, Tai, lao, northem china than to filipina/ pacifil peoples.
indonesian related to austronesian espessialy to linguistk/ bahasa.
Thanks for the vid!You see Im an indo-Im half indonesian n half romanian.My mother is ambonese,with dark skin,no slanted eyes,and many in her family have curly and wavy hair.I dont consider myself "Asian" in the western sense of east asia.Their not my people.But of course to Stupid americans were all just asian right?my mothers family is obviously mollucan/pacific.Thanks for showing our heritage!Indonesia,philipines,polynesia,micronesia,hawaii,maori,etc!
@naivemaria yes maria... Australian natives also Austro people (south people),but they often called as Austroloid not Austronesian,but we all southern people so it does not matter that the australian natives as part of our close relative..
@lagodaxnian Actually the so called Australoid peoples aren't connected whatsoever with the austronesian peoples... T
hey arrived and populated South-east asia and Oceania far eralier than the austronesians... some say at least 40 000 years ago... Those would be The different Negritos people, the Papuans, the melanesians and the australian aborigenes.
The Austronesian only started expanding from Taiwan into south-east asia about 7000 years ago... Then they expanded into the pacific islands
@lagodaxnian can u made Malay-Polynesian Palace(istana) , artecture , candi2 dan lain2 sepeniggalan.in next video plz..to madagascar to hawaii.contoh di semenanjung..Candi peniggalan srivijaya di selatan thai,istana seri meranti,dan istana melaka dan di indonesia istana pagaruyung,dan di pulau2 jawa,bali hingga ke maluku.Papua adakah mereka punya istana? dan adakah masuk dalam Austronesia juga?

@fortunamia Naga people territory called Nagaland, and part of the State of Assam in Northeast India, their culture is very close to the Burmese culture in Southeast Asia (Indochina) and some tribes of Indochina living in the North Eastern region of India, their tribe considered Austro-Asiatic family not Austronesian, I recommend that more clearly on Nagaland, try typing " Nagaland-Wikipedia ", there you can get information about Nagaland people and their culture in India.
@NirinaGasikara Andrew Sharp for instance tried to discredit polynesians as great voyagers. But the truth is Austronesians have been navigating the world long before any European knew how to sail. Stephen Oppenheimer believe the cradle of civilization is southeast Asia. The flooding of Sundaland diperse the people & with it their knowledge. Some say the Sumerians & ancient Egyptians might have come from S.E. Asia, just like the Malagasy. Ra the sun god of Egypt is the same in Polynesia.
I like the music. And I'm Tongan and recently lived in Tonga and Tonga is not on this list............come on guys. Us Tongans are good looking too! hahaha
@NirinaGasikara, thank you for sharing a few Malagasy words. It's so amazing how our language have similarities, and to think Madagascar, Island Southeast Asia, and Oceania are oceans apart. It really proves that our ancestors were great seaferers.
@lagodaxnian thank you brother for bringing this up south east asian or austronesian are under indentity crisis. First we are austronesian and asian but differ from east asian. I hate austronesian half denying their roots. I want the world to know our indentity asian as austronesian. We must preserve our culture even as we modernize one love from pilipino austronesian.
@loxinorz you're welcome loxinorz..my initial purpose of making this video is to foster a sense of pride back to the Austronesian culture among the people of southeast asia. do not let the culture and the origins of your ancestors became laughingstock partially by the most racist people on youtube. they do not know what is Austronesian, and a bad picture from them, that the Austronesian people even lower than animals. who else is proud of Austronesian culture, if not our people themselves ?
@NirinaGasikara i'm absolutely agree with you nirina !! thanks..your so true !! we don't have anything similar with chinese..in all side !!! language,skin color and physics as a whole.. :)
@lagodaxnian but too bad.. if someone starts talking about the people of Asia, so there is in their heads are people who have Chinese as physically, and I think you also know that .. and this makes me conclude this is the reason why some Filipinos and Indonesians prefer called as the "Islanders" (though sometimes without mentioning the Pacific), the image of Asians as it was so selfish !
@lagodaxnian but lately I really feel disappointed, just because of cultural invasion from the east (C-Pop,K-Pop,J-Pop and so on) to southeast asia, some people in Southeast Asia began to portray themselves as the people in east asia, they began to describe themselves as "other people", they crying if they ancestor has chinese dna from hongkong,yunan,etc..it's really2 ridiculous !! they seem not have pride in their origins.. :(
I do not mind if someone is liked and admired the other cultures, because it was normal, but they should not forget their origins are in fact different with them. I also have a sister and love the culture of east asia, but I always told her not to forget our origins and that we also have the great culture like them, it's just that our ancestors did not use silk dress like them. our ancestors looked very one with nature, without clothes.and only cover the parts of the body is only important, etc.
I was watching a video of Maori's doing the Haka, and they shouted "ka mate" it almost sounded like "ka-matay" in my language means "go die". But when I did a research, it actually means "I die", closed enough. Another name for Rapa Nui or Easter island is Mata-ki- te- Rangi, means "Eyes looking to the Sky" In my language it's "Mata nagtan-aw sa Langit",( visayan), "Mata nakatingin sa Langit" ( tagalog) here we can see the similarities, although not entirely the same.
lagodaxnian - Since I'm not a religious person I'm usually open to the idea of scientific study of our origins. An asian friend of mine once told me though that Samoans were directly descended from the people of Cambodia.
@88ChimDee if your friend told that samoans are descended of Cambodian,i think the cambodian that your friend mentioned is Cham people.i am also have cham ancestor although i am an Indonesian.but not came from Cambodia,my ancestor came from southern viet nam.and in the past all southern viet nam area is former cham area.Cham is Austronesian,and has similarity in language with malay and Javanese.
@lagodaxnian - I'm not too familiar with Cambodian history but another friend of mine who is Cambodian told me that the people of Cambodia were likely descendants of Indians. He wasn't sure if it was true but it explained why, though Cambodians were technically classified as 'Asian', their skin colour was slightly darker than the typical pale skin of an Asian who was (say) from Japan.
@88ChimDee if you mean here that the people of Cambodia who have Indian ancestry, so I can ensure that they are the Mon-Khmer. but Mon Khmer, they are not Austronesian they are Austro-Asiatic people which their languages and cultures very different from Austronesian people, then they are not Samoan ancestors.samoans are Austronesian and your language has a lot similarity with Indonesian and Malaysian language.Indonesian and malaysian in the past also get a lot of influence from India,
especially in the corporate culture and the way they dress (hinduism style),but of course I do not mean to say that the people of Indonesia or Malaysia as Samoan ancestor, they may have common ancestors who came from Taiwan during the migration process (may be came from the same tribe).and I think the Austronesia language that closest to the language of Samoa is the Javanese (Java Island in Indonesia) language.
example learning to count (between samoan and javanese) : 1 = Tasi (Samoan), Siji (Javanese) 2 = Lua (samoan), Loro (Javanese) 3 = Tolu (Samoan), Telu (Javanese) 4 = Fa (Samoan), Fapat (Javanese) 5 = Lima (Samoan), Lima (Javanese) and all Austronesian language... 6 = Ono (Samoan), Enem (Javanese) 7 = Fitu (Samoan), Pitu (Javanese) 8 = Valu (Samoan), Walu (Javanese) 9 = Iva (Samoan), Sanga (Javanese) 10 = Sefulu (Samoan), Sepuluh (Javanese), only 2 numbers that do not have similarity,1 and 9..
@lagodaxnian wow! im in awe im samoan n i learned about austronesians thru youtube. i cant believe there's another culture ive nevered heard b4 has many similiarities to da samoan language. how awesome!. im a look up javanese culture.
not so sure about it..since some of the founder of Cambodia was Austronesian/Malayic...early ruler of Khmer has relation with the Cham...and the king who ordered the built of Angkor Wat, Suryavarman was Malay of Trambalinga or Ligor in modern Thai today.....
@lagodaxnian - Someone once told me that the true Hawaiian blood had died out long ago and now the people of Hawaii look more asian than pacific islanders. So it basically comes down to pride for some really. While an aunt of mine generally dismisses anything scientific-related. Like most religious-addled people she considers it a sin to believe that we could have possibly been descended from anyone other than God himself.
you know Chimdee..? I think you are right .. because when making this video, I tried very hard to get the original features from Hawaii, but it is very difficult, because few people here even laugh and say that people here are not 100% native Hawaiian or even not 100% hawaiian..!
Some time ago I ever watch videos about the distinctive features of Hawaii look more like the Melanesian big body, dark, and has curly hair. I do not know it's true or not, and I forgot the title of the video, but I saw it on youtube.. the people of Hawaii are now more like Japanese, Chinese and the Filipinos due to the large number of Asian immigrants on the island, forcing the inhabitants to intermarriage with Asian people.
and I think something similar happened with chamorru people in Guam , where many people from Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, China and Korea lives there..Chamorru now looks more asian.. :(
I think there existed a huge land mass (Google Earth), which connected all of Indonesia, the Philipines, Australia, China, Micronesia, Melanesia and the Indochina. But in the middle of geographic history, about 70% of that landmass has submerged due to the polar caps melting and many ancient Austronesians fled to Australia, Indonesia and China. That's why modern East Asians, Austronesians and the Australian Aborigins share certain haplotype genes but the most of the Siberians don't.

@MrUsoRasta I read that southern china speak tai-kadai & they have close affinities with austronesians & sino-tibetan. Tai-Kadai is also spoken to some parts of southeast asia specially in Thailand & Laos so basically this people are inside the mainland southeast asia with the Austro-Asiatic speaking people. The main or the origin of austronesian speaking people specially the malayo-polynesian is in maritime or island southeast asia and oceana that's why Malayo-Polynesian.
impinai79 1 week ago
@MrUsoRasta But most of the Austronesian in the mainland southeast asia are near the shore & which tribe in Southern China that connect to Austronesian? Who are those southern chinese? because if we say chinese which is i think majority of the population is han chinese, some of them are tai-kadai,sino-tibetan, and austro-asiatic, I read the Gaoshan in Southern China is part of Austronesian family.
impinai79 1 week ago
There's actually 3 kind of language family spoken in South East Asia : Tai-Kadai, Austro-Asiatic and the Austronesian. Most of the Austronesian speaking people are South East Asia located in Maritime South East Asia and those Austronesian speaking in Mainland South East Asia usually located near the shore.

Men of Austronesian, East Asian, Amerindian, and Inuit origin have no coarse body hair on their chest, back, or butt. They find it hard to grow real mustaches or beards. Women have only very soft body hair as compared to Europeans, Middle Easterns, and South Asians. In general of light to dark brown skin, brown eyes, and black hair. This is probably because they picked up less Neanderthal genes as compared to Europeans as Homo Sapiens came out of Africa 70,000 years ago.

Using the 80-20 rule, Filipinos are basically of 80% Austronesian stock and 20% other (Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Arab, Latin European, and even Amerindian due to mixed Spanish from the Americas). The Austronesian stock came originally probably from South Central Asia approx 10,000 years ago. Compare this to Amerindians who also came from somewhere in North Central Asia approx 15,000 years ago. The original Austronesian and Amerindian stocks are now gone from mainland Asia.

@RoGumbI yes, i really agree with your opinion..austronesian and amerindian came from central asia..amerindian or native american come from north of central asia,while the austronesian come from south of central asia..they migrated far until reach america continent and to the north and south pacific islands..

@kartikasweet you got your answer.. ! polynesian today, look more native american (not latin) and they speak austronesian..this happened cause they area in pacific not far from america continent..and southeast asian look more mongols because they area near asian mainland and they also speak in austronesian language..both polynesian and southeast asian has same ancestor,that's why they speak in the same language..

I was just wondering if there were Austronesian languages that existed in precolonial America. Since most of the native tongues there are now extinct and have been replaced with Spanish, Portuguese, French, and English there's no way to determined. But if Polynesians were able to trade with the natives of America, how is it not possible for them to live in that big continent ? My guess is that there were Austronesians in precolonial America.

there is a debate that the Olmecs are the polynesians - and that movie Apocolypto. that was actually polynesians and the Mayans are the Mexicans, that is why lots of islanders n mexicans have similar features. not all Native American Indians look alike - some actually look poly, n others look like asians. u might not know in the 1800 - 1900's Pacific Islanders went intoo Slavery in Australia, Fiji n South America - thats why i want to know, who r we according 2 the bible - Deut 28 - captivity

DragonTrixter 1 year ago
@DragonTrixter Of course, probably many years ago, Samoans did have some contact with South Americans. However, I think what this video is trying to show is the language similarities. For example, Im half seediq from Taiwan, I know that the seediq language, 5 is lima, also in Samoan. And 7 is pitu, and in Samoan Fitu. So the root of the language is similar in a sense suggesting that some time ago these pacific islanders all come from one originating place.

2. Perjanjian Roma tanggal 30 September 1962

@lagodaxnian jika tidak,maka sulit untuk menuntut merdeka.lain casenya dengan timor leste.timor leste merupakan wilayah koloni portugal di masa lampau.sementara indonesia terbentuk berdasarkan wilayah-wilayah koloni belanda.maka,indonesia tak berhak mempertahankan timor leste sebagai bagian darinya.maka,diadakan referendum menentukan kemerdekaan,dan dimenangkan oleh pihak yang mendukung kemerdekaan.indonesia harus berbesar hati.lepaslah timor leste dan menjadi negara berdaulat.

@lagodaxnian Lihat di Goa India adalah Kolonial Portugis India merebutnya kembali.seperti Indonesia lakukan pada Timor,maka sah itu Hak Indonesia,menyatukan bangsa sermpun.Mungkin kerna Australia menekan2 Indonesia lagian Timor kaya dgn Gas dan& Minyak..saya tak setuju jika banyak negara2 rumpun di pecah2d dalam banyak2 negara..saya pasti Indonesia akan kuat dan kaya satu hari nanti.US pun dalam 300 tahun untuk maju inikan Indonesia baru 60++thun.sy ngerti ngurus negara kepulauan bukan gampang..

@lagodaxnian Actually the so called Australoid peoples aren't connected whatsoever with the austronesian peoples... T
hey arrived and populated South-east asia and Oceania far eralier than the austronesians... some say at least 40 000 years ago... Those would be The different Negritos people, the Papuans, the melanesians and the australian aborigenes.
The Austronesian only started expanding from Taiwan into south-east asia about 7000 years ago... Then they expanded into the pacific islands

How about Naga people in northeast India?
It seems they're related to the tribes that dominate today's southeast Asia.
fortunamia 1 year ago
@fortunamia Naga people territory called Nagaland, and part of the State of Assam in Northeast India, their culture is very close to the Burmese culture in Southeast Asia (Indochina) and some tribes of Indochina living in the North Eastern region of India, their tribe considered Austro-Asiatic family not Austronesian, I recommend that more clearly on Nagaland, try typing " Nagaland-Wikipedia ", there you can get information about Nagaland people and their culture in India.

@NirinaGasikara Andrew Sharp for instance tried to discredit polynesians as great voyagers. But the truth is Austronesians have been navigating the world long before any European knew how to sail. Stephen Oppenheimer believe the cradle of civilization is southeast Asia. The flooding of Sundaland diperse the people & with it their knowledge. Some say the Sumerians & ancient Egyptians might have come from S.E. Asia, just like the Malagasy. Ra the sun god of Egypt is the same in Polynesia.

@NirinaGasikara, thank you for sharing a few Malagasy words. It's so amazing how our language have similarities, and to think Madagascar, Island Southeast Asia, and Oceania are oceans apart. It really proves that our ancestors were great seaferers.

@lagodaxnian thank you brother for bringing this up south east asian or austronesian are under indentity crisis. First we are austronesian and asian but differ from east asian. I hate austronesian half denying their roots. I want the world to know our indentity asian as austronesian. We must preserve our culture even as we modernize one love from pilipino austronesian.
loxinorz 1 year ago
@loxinorz you're welcome loxinorz..my initial purpose of making this video is to foster a sense of pride back to the Austronesian culture among the people of southeast asia. do not let the culture and the origins of your ancestors became laughingstock partially by the most racist people on youtube. they do not know what is Austronesian, and a bad picture from them, that the Austronesian people even lower than animals. who else is proud of Austronesian culture, if not our people themselves ?

@NirinaGasikara i'm absolutely agree with you nirina !! thanks..your so true !! we don't have anything similar with chinese..in all side !!! language,skin color and physics as a whole.. :)
lagodaxnian 1 year ago
@lagodaxnian but too bad.. if someone starts talking about the people of Asia, so there is in their heads are people who have Chinese as physically, and I think you also know that .. and this makes me conclude this is the reason why some Filipinos and Indonesians prefer called as the "Islanders" (though sometimes without mentioning the Pacific), the image of Asians as it was so selfish !
lagodaxnian 1 year ago
@lagodaxnian but lately I really feel disappointed, just because of cultural invasion from the east (C-Pop,K-Pop,J-Pop and so on) to southeast asia, some people in Southeast Asia began to portray themselves as the people in east asia, they began to describe themselves as "other people", they crying if they ancestor has chinese dna from hongkong,yunan,etc..it's really2 ridiculous !! they seem not have pride in their origins.. :(
lagodaxnian 1 year ago
I do not mind if someone is liked and admired the other cultures, because it was normal, but they should not forget their origins are in fact different with them. I also have a sister and love the culture of east asia, but I always told her not to forget our origins and that we also have the great culture like them, it's just that our ancestors did not use silk dress like them. our ancestors looked very one with nature, without clothes.and only cover the parts of the body is only important, etc.

I was watching a video of Maori's doing the Haka, and they shouted "ka mate" it almost sounded like "ka-matay" in my language means "go die". But when I did a research, it actually means "I die", closed enough. Another name for Rapa Nui or Easter island is Mata-ki- te- Rangi, means "Eyes looking to the Sky" In my language it's "Mata nagtan-aw sa Langit",( visayan), "Mata nakatingin sa Langit" ( tagalog) here we can see the similarities, although not entirely the same.
subangdako 1 year ago
@subangdako thanks..i think also have similarity with Indonesian language...
Maori = ka mate = I Die
Tagalog = Ka Matay = Go Die
Indonesian/Malay = Kau Mati = You Die
Mata ki-te-rangi = Rapa Nui = Eyes looking to the sky
Mata nagtan-aw sa langit = Visayan
Mata nakatingin sa langit = Tagalog
Mata lihat ke langit = Indonesian/malay..
no doubt..they have similarities..

@lagodaxnian you could also say aku mati: I die. Same thing with ka mate.

lagodaxnian - Since I'm not a religious person I'm usually open to the idea of scientific study of our origins. An asian friend of mine once told me though that Samoans were directly descended from the people of Cambodia.
88ChimDee 1 year ago
@88ChimDee if your friend told that samoans are descended of Cambodian,i think the cambodian that your friend mentioned is Cham people.i am also have cham ancestor although i am an Indonesian.but not came from Cambodia,my ancestor came from southern viet nam.and in the past all southern viet nam area is former cham area.Cham is Austronesian,and has similarity in language with malay and Javanese.
lagodaxnian 1 year ago
@lagodaxnian - I'm not too familiar with Cambodian history but another friend of mine who is Cambodian told me that the people of Cambodia were likely descendants of Indians. He wasn't sure if it was true but it explained why, though Cambodians were technically classified as 'Asian', their skin colour was slightly darker than the typical pale skin of an Asian who was (say) from Japan.
88ChimDee 1 year ago
@88ChimDee if you mean here that the people of Cambodia who have Indian ancestry, so I can ensure that they are the Mon-Khmer. but Mon Khmer, they are not Austronesian they are Austro-Asiatic people which their languages and cultures very different from Austronesian people, then they are not Samoan ancestors.samoans are Austronesian and your language has a lot similarity with Indonesian and Malaysian language.Indonesian and malaysian in the past also get a lot of influence from India,
lagodaxnian 1 year ago
especially in the corporate culture and the way they dress (hinduism style),but of course I do not mean to say that the people of Indonesia or Malaysia as Samoan ancestor, they may have common ancestors who came from Taiwan during the migration process (may be came from the same tribe).and I think the Austronesia language that closest to the language of Samoa is the Javanese (Java Island in Indonesia) language.

not so sure about it..since some of the founder of Cambodia was Austronesian/Malayic...early ruler of Khmer has relation with the Cham...and the king who ordered the built of Angkor Wat, Suryavarman was Malay of Trambalinga or Ligor in modern Thai today.....

@lagodaxnian - Someone once told me that the true Hawaiian blood had died out long ago and now the people of Hawaii look more asian than pacific islanders. So it basically comes down to pride for some really. While an aunt of mine generally dismisses anything scientific-related. Like most religious-addled people she considers it a sin to believe that we could have possibly been descended from anyone other than God himself.
88ChimDee 1 year ago
you know Chimdee..? I think you are right .. because when making this video, I tried very hard to get the original features from Hawaii, but it is very difficult, because few people here even laugh and say that people here are not 100% native Hawaiian or even not 100% hawaiian..!
lagodaxnian 1 year ago
Some time ago I ever watch videos about the distinctive features of Hawaii look more like the Melanesian big body, dark, and has curly hair. I do not know it's true or not, and I forgot the title of the video, but I saw it on youtube.. the people of Hawaii are now more like Japanese, Chinese and the Filipinos due to the large number of Asian immigrants on the island, forcing the inhabitants to intermarriage with Asian people.

and I think something similar happened with chamorru people in Guam , where many people from Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, China and Korea lives there..Chamorru now looks more asian.. :(
