The history of the Philippines dates from the earliest hominin activity in the archipelago at least by 709,000 years ago.[1] Homo luzonensis, a species of archaic humans, was present on the island of Luzon[2][3] at least by 134,000 years ago.[4]

The earliest known anatomically modern human was from Tabon Caves in Palawan dating about 47,000 years.[5] Negrito groups were the first inhabitants to settle in the prehistoric Philippines.[6] These were followed by Austroasiatics, Papuans, and South Asians.[7] By around 3000 BCE, seafaring Austronesians, who form the majority of the current population, migrated southward from Taiwan.[8] By 2000 BCE the archipelago was the crux of a trans-oceanic Philippine jade culture.[9]

Scholars generally believe that these ethnic and social groups eventually developed into various settlements or polities with varying degrees of economic specialization, social stratification, and political organization.[10] Some of these settlements (mostly those located on major river deltas) achieved such a scale of social complexity that some scholars believe they should be considered early states.[11] This includes the predecessors of modern-day population centers such as Manila, Tondo, Pangasinan, Cebu, Panay, Bohol, Butuan, Cotabato, Lanao, Zamboanga and Sulu[12] as well as some polities, such as Ma-i, whose possible location is either Mindoro or Laguna.[13]

These polities were influenced by Islamic, Indian, and Chinese cultures. Islam arrived from Arabia, while Indian Hindu-Buddhist[14] religion, language, culture, literature and philosophy arrived from Indian Subcontinent .[15] Some polities were Sinified tributary states allied to China. These small maritime states flourished from the 1st millennium.[16][17]

These kingdoms traded with what are now called China, India, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia. The remainder of the settlements were independent barangays allied with one of the larger states. These small states alternated from being part of or being influenced by larger Asian empires like the Ming dynasty, Majapahit and Brunei or rebelling and waging war against them.[18]

The first recorded visit by Europeans is Ferdinand Magellan's expedition, which landed in Homonhon Island, now part of Guiuan, Eastern Samar, on March 17, 1521. They lost a battle against the army of Lapulapu, chief of Mactan, where Magellan was killed.[19][20][21] The Spanish Philippines began with the Pacific expansion of New Spain and the arrival of Miguel López de Legazpi's expedition on February 13, 1565, from Mexico. He established the first permanent settlement in Cebu.[22]

Much of the archipelago came under Spanish rule, creating the first unified political structure known as the Philippines. Spanish colonial rule saw the introduction of Christianity, the code of law, and the oldest modern university in Asia. The Philippines was ruled under the Mexico-based Viceroyalty of New Spain. After this, the colony was directly governed by S
