Ceviche or Kinilaw
Ceviche according to the books I’ve read is prepared similarly to kinilaw which is a raw fish dish from the Philippines that is essentially not cooked in fire but cooked in room temperature vinegar and citrus juices. Remains of kinilaw were dated to 900-1200 AD in ship burial sites in the Philippines. With known contact of Polynesians to South America and the Botocudos tribe having Polynesian genetics in their ancient burial remains. The method of cooking kinilaw is believed to have been passed from the Philippines through the Pacific to the Americas. 75.40.185.108 (talk) 02:11, 16 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Kinilaw should only appear in this article in the "see also" section. It has no relationship whatsoever with Ceviche besides whoever supposedly calls it a "Philippine Ceviche" (likely someone who knows nothing about Philippine cuisine or Ceviche).--MarshalN20 ✉ 🕊 13:28, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Cebiche according to RAE dictionary.
The RAE dictionary proposes a possible origin to the word Ceviche; however, it is not definitive. Quizá means maybe or perhaps in Spanish. The alternative origin word is 'Siwichi' meaning fresh fish in Quechua, a pre-Columbian language. Cebiche Tb. ceviche. Quizá del ár. hisp. assukkabáǧ, y este del ár. sikbāǧ. 71.208.234.96 (talk) 22:37, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
