[edit] Negritos

Were there never any negritos in Laos (i.e. the first H. sapiens outmigrants from Africa, c. 50-60 thousand years ago)? Badagnani 22:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

None that I'm aware of. I think they were just on islands and along the coast.Kevin Borland, Esq. 22:57, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Earlier species

Are you including earlier hominid species such as Homo erectus in the "peopling" articles? Many regions of Southeast Asia were inhabited much earlier by these species (see Java Man). Badagnani 22:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

They should be included I suppose.Kevin Borland, Esq. 22:56, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
