Abstract
Follows the Southeast Asia Upper Paleolithic and Hoabinhian traditions, precedes the Southeast Asian Late Prehistoric traditions. Many hunter-gatherer economies continued in isolated regions during this period, especially in Island Southeast Asia. This period also encompassed the primary dispersal of two major agriculturalist populations: speakers of Austroasiatic languages on Mainland Southeast Asia, and speakers of Austronesian languages in the Philippine and Indonesian islands.
