Experts believe that the discovery of a 7,500-year-old civilization, along the coast in southeastern China, may have been the origin of one of the greatest maritime migrations in human history.
Through genetic testing on human remains that were uncovered, archaeologists discovered a match for the Austronesian people.
Austronesians were a large ethnic group that lived across a massive geographical area, originating in Taiwan and reached as far as Easter Island in Chile. The population covered most of Southeast Asia, Micronesia, Polynesia, New Zealand, and Hawaii.
