Abstract

For nearly a decade now the debate has quickened on the origins of the Austronesian Peoples of East and Southeast Asia who migrated eastward into Island Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific. There is no doubt now about the relationship among them, or among their stomach bacteria or their rats, chickens, pigs, and dogs. Linguistic, genetic, and archaeological data show compelling associations and divergence from common source areas at critical times in the late Holocene. However, it is not clear if any single region is the point of origin. This paper examines these hypotheses and proposes a model of maritime migration based on spatial perception unique to the native peoples of the region, one that likely led to bursts of migration over relatively short periods, and one that links indigenous peoples throughout an extensive maritime world.
南岛时刻
近十年来,关于东迁至东南亚岛屿和西太平洋的东亚和东南亚南岛人的起源的辩论已经加速。他们之间的关系,他们的胃细菌之间的关系,他们的老鼠、鸡、猪和狗之间的关系,现在都是毫无疑问的了。语言、遗传和考古数据显示,在全新世晚期的关键时期,它们与共同来源地区存在着令人信服的联系和分歧。然而,尚不清楚是否有任何单一地区是发源点。本文检验了这些假设,并提出了一个基于该地区土著民族独特的空间感知的海上移民模型,该模型可能会在相对较短的时间内导致移民的爆发,并将整个广阔的海洋世界中的土著民族联系起来。
