There is also a lack of evidence for sources beyond 1 or 2 generations (as most as most history of dress is relied upon by oral cultures‚ folktales‚ and folklore and formal writing was not introduced until the late nineteenth century). Most of the pre-colonial clothing evidence is shown to belong to the ruling class. The aforementioned is logical in that most people (even today) who can afford art are those who are well off and have some type of surplus currency that can afford the luxuries. Because

PRE-SPANISH PHILIPPINES It is believed that the first inhabitants of the Philippines arrived over 300‚000 years ago. It is commonly thought that they migrated over a land bridge‚ which existed at that time‚ from the Asian mainland. The next known inhabitation is when the Negrito or Aeta arrived in the islands around 25‚000 years ago.

Their means of adaptation to the environment were far more advanced and sophisticated

Another point he ties together is that the world is held

Pre-Socratic Philosophers Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy 1. Who Were the Presocratic Philosophers? Our understanding of the Presocratics is complicated by the incomplete nature of our evidence. Most of them wrote at least one “book” (short pieces of prose writing‚ it seems‚ or‚ in some cases‚ poems of not great length)‚ but no complete work survives. Instead‚ we are dependent on later philosophers‚ historians‚ and compilers of collections of ancient wisdom for disconnected quotations (fragments)
