Peoples in South-East Asia

Many different peoples and cultures have shaped the history of South-East Asia. • Austro-Melanesian peoples arrived about 70 000 years ago. They are now only a tiny minority in South-East Asia. • Malays probably migrated from southern China from about 2500 BCE, settling in the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia. • The Vietnamese migrated from China to northern Vietnam before the second century BCE. • The Chams probably migrated from Borneo to southern Vietnam before the second century BCE (see SOURCE3 ). • Mon peoples and related Khmers spread across South-East Asia from southern Burma into Thailand, Cambodia and southern Vietnam in the early centuries CE. • Tai peoples migrated from southern China mainly into Thailand, Laos, northern Burma and north-western Vietnam in the tenth century CE (see SOURCE4 ).
