Ati (tribe)
Who included the Ati tribe of Panay in this section? I think it is kinda an insult to them being included here since their culture is more related to the Bisaya rather than to the Sambalic culture of the Aetas of Zambales in Luzon.23prootie 08:56, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

DNA
What about DNA?--Kaiyr (talk) 10:17, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Please update with: "Philippine Ayta possess the highest level of Denisovan ancestry in the world"
I think it would be good to add some short info about this study's findings to the article. It's currently featured in 2021 in science like so:

Scientists report that the Ayta people in the Philippines have the highest level of Denisovan ancestry in the world and describe the related genetic history in the region.

This is also relevant to what asked about above.

 * I have two issues with this: 1. The statement is only true for a subset of the Aeta people. The study indeed finds the highest level of Denisovan ancestry among the Magbukun, but for all other Aeta groups, it is approximately at the same level or lower than the mean level for Australian or Papuan peoples. 2. Genetic information in articles about ethnic groups should be based on high-quality secondary sources. Larena et al. (2021) undoubtedly is good scholarship, but it is still a study with presents primary research results. I'd rather wait for coverage in a secondary source before we include it here. –Austronesier (talk) 15:46, 26 September 2021 (UTC)


 * This is probably a sign it's time to have a separate wiki entry for the Magbukun people. - Batongmalake (talk) 03:50, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
