Modern humans first arrived in the Philippines around 48,000 BC, settling in various regions and developing simple stone tools. By around 3,000 BC, Filipinos were producing pottery, adzes, and ornaments and entered the Iron Age between the 3rd century BC and 11th century AD, learning iron smelting. They established trade networks with China and Vietnam by the 10th century AD. Under Spanish rule from the 16th century, schools and hospitals were developed and the Royal Economic Society encouraged agriculture and industry. Higher education was limited but the University of Santo Tomas offered medicine and pharmacy degrees in the 19th century. Meteorological studies were also promoted during this time.
Science and technology studies, or science, technology and society studies (STS) is the study of how society, politics, and culture affect scientific research and technological innovation, and how these, in turn, affect society, politics and culture.

The Philippine archipelago was considered as one of the nation's maritime trade coasts which had connections with nearby communities and countries that traded its merchandise and luxury items. In Palawan and Zambales, locals unexpectedly discovered drunken commercial vessels containing artifacts on how people in the past have done their trading which dated back to 1521.

The Americas, Europe, and Africa Before 1492
Chapter Outline
1.1 The Americas
1.2 Europe on the Brink of Change
1.3 West Africa and the Role of Slavery
Introduction
Globalization, the ever-increasing interconnectedness of the world, is not a new phenomenon,
but it accelerated when western Europeans discovered the riches of the East. During the
Crusades (1095–1291), Europeans developed an appetite for spices, silk, porcelain, sugar, and
other luxury items from the East, for which they traded fur, timber, and Slavic people they
captured and sold (hence the word slave). But when the Silk Road, the long overland trading
route from China to the Mediterranean, became costlier and more dangerous to travel, Europeans
searched for a more efficient and inexpensive trade route over water, initiating the development
of what we now call the Atlantic World.
In pursuit of commerce in Asia, fifteenth-century traders unexpectedly encountered a “New
World” populated by millions and home to sophisticated and numerous peoples. Mistakenly
believing they had reached the East Indies, these early explorers called its inhabitants Indians.
West Africa, a diverse and culturally rich area, soon entered the stage as other nations exploited
its slave trade and brought its peoples to the New World in chains. Although Europeans would
come to dominate the New World, they could not have done so without Africans and native
peoples.
1.1 The Americas
By the end of this section, you will be able to:
● Locate on a map the major American civilizations before the arrival of the Spanish
● Discuss the cultural achievements of these civilizations
● Discuss the differences and similarities between lifestyles, religious practices, and
customs among the native peoples
Chapter 1 | The Americas, Europe, and Africa Before 1492
Between nine and fifteen thousand years ago, some scholars believe that a land bridge existed
between Asia and North America that we now call Beringia . The first inhabitants of what would
be named the Americas migrated across this bridge in search of food. When the glaciers melted,
water engulfed Beringia, and the Bering Strait was formed. Later settlers came by boat across the
narrow strait. (The fact that Asians and American Indians share genetic markers on a Y
chromosome lends credibility to this migration theory.) Continually moving southward, the
settlers eventually populated both North and South America, creating unique cultures that ranged
from the highly complex and urban Aztec civilization in what is now Mexico City to the
woodland tribes of eastern North America. Recent research along the west coast of South
America suggests that migrant populations may have traveled down this coast by water as well
as by land.
Researchers believe that about ten thousand years ago, humans also began the domestication of
plants and animals, a ...

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. STONE AGE
Archeological findings show that modern man from
Asian mainland first came over land on across
narrow channels to live in Batangas and Palawan
about 48,000 B.C.
Subsequently they formed settlement in Sulu, Davao,
Zamboanga, Samar, Negros, Batangas, Laguna,
Rizal, Bulacan and Cagayan.
3. Inventions
They made simple tools and weapons of stone flakes
and later developed method of sawing and polishing
stones around 40,000 B.C.
By around 3,000 B.C. they were producing adzes
ornaments of seashells and pottery. Pottery
flourished for the next 2,000 years until they
imported Chinese porcelain. Soon they learned to
produce copper, bronze, iron, and gold metal tools
and ornaments.
4. Iron Age
The Iron Age lasted from there third century B.C. to
11th century A.D. During this period Filipinos were
engaged in extraction smelting and refining of iron
from ores, until the importation of cast iron from
Sarawak and later from China.
5. Inventions/Discoveries
They learn to weave cotton, make glass ornaments,
and cultivate lowland rice and dike fields of terraced
fields utilizing spring water in mountain regions.
They also learned to build boats for trading
purposes.
Spanish chronicles noted refined plank built
warships called caracoa suited for interisland trade
raids.
6. 10th century A.D.
Filipinos from the Butuan were trading with Champa
(Vietnam) and those from Ma-I (Mindoro) with
China as noted in Chinese records containing several
references to the Philippines. These archaeological
findings indicated that regular trade relations
between the Philippines, China and Vietnam had
been well established from the 10th century to the
15th century A.D.
7. Trading
The People of Ma-I and San-Hsu (Palawan) traded
bee wax, cotton, pearls, coconut heart mats, tortoise
shell and medicinal betel nuts, panie cloth for
porcelain, leads fishnets sinker, colored glass beads,
iron pots, iron needles and tin.
8. Before the Spaniards
Filipinos were already engage in activities and
practices related to science forming primitive or first
wave technology. They were curative values of some
plant on how to extract medicine from herbs. They
had an alphabet, a system of writing, a method of
counting and weights and measure. They had no
calendar but counted the years by the period of the
moon and from one harvest to another.

San Juan Lazaro Hospital the oldest in the Far East
was founded in 1578.
•17th and 18th Century•
Successive shipwrecks of and attacks of pirates on
the galleons led to declining profits from the trade
that led to economic depression in Manila during the
later part of the 17th century.
11. Spanish Regime
The Real Sociedad Economica de los Amigos Del Pais
de Filipinas founded by Governador Jose Basco y
Vargas in 1780 encouraged research in agriculture
and industry. The society promoted cultivation of
indigo, cotton, cinnamon, and silk industry.
In 1789 Manila was opened to Asian shipping,
inaugurating an era of increase in export of rice,
hemp, tobacco, sugar, and indigo, and imports of
manufacturing goods.

offered nautical four year course for pilot of
merchant marine that includes the subject:
15. Spanish Regime
Higher education was generally viewed with
suspicion as encouraging rebellion among native
Filipinos and thus only few daring students were
able to undertake higher studies.
The expanded world trade and commerce in the later
part of the 19th century led to the rapid development
of Manila as cosmopolitan center.
Modern amenities such as steam tramways,
waterworks, newspaper, electric lights, banking
system were introduce in 19th century.
16. Spanish Regime
Jesuits promoted meteorological studies founding
Manila observatory at the Ateneo Municipal de
