another archaeological clue that may vindicate Maharlikan research, some excerpts:
He said that 3,500 years ago no other place was inhabited in the remote Pacific Islands. “The closest inhabited areas were more than 2,000 km distant in the Philippines.”
The Carson couple sees a pottery trail extending from the Philippines to the Marianas.
Carson said, “Based on what we know so far in these different regions, we can trace a ‘pottery trail’ from Island Southeast Asia into the Pacific.”
He said the oldest trace was in the Philippines about 3,800 years ago or maybe earlier. “The oldest in the remote Pacific Islands, however, was in the Marianas about 3500 years ago,” added Carson.
He explained to Variety that in the decorated pottery of both the Philippines and the Marianas, there were many of the same design motifs shared at the same time 3,500 years ago.
Carson said that the decorative style appeared in the Philippines at least 3,800 years ago or perhaps earlier and this style appeared for the first time in the Marianas 3,500 years ago.
“We do not see the same type of pottery in any other parts of the Asia-Pacific region until slightly later,” he said.
