What is the origin of black Filipinos?

There is a word in Spanish-Negrito, which means small and black. Since the discovery of a hunting nation in the Philippines, this word has been used in a fixed way. This nation is called "black". They were once called "the African miracle on the island". Adult males in negri Tuo are about 1.5 meters tall, while females are about 1.3 meters tall. They have dark skin and curly hair, and look like African pygmies. Nigri asked people to hunt and gather for a living. Usually, 40 to 50 families form a group, and they practice paternal exogamy. There is no class system, chiefs or other specific leaders, and all ethnic groups discuss things together. Collecting plants and building houses are women's jobs. Men are good at hunting with bows and arrows. Although the prey belongs to individuals, it should also be distributed to those who catch little or no prey. Black culture is borrowed. Most of them borrowed from the higher culture of the surrounding Malay ethnic groups. They don't have their own language, but use the languages of the surrounding ethnic groups. In terms of material culture, there is almost no originality, only a slight reorganization of the materials of the surrounding ethnic groups. They have no myths and legends of their own. Tattoos are popular among men and women in nigri. When 12 ~ 13 years old, they carved patterns on wrists, chest and back with shells. Tattooed people, although it takes a lot of blood to cut their skin, don't care. After painting, they immediately jumped into the sea to soak the wound, making it red and swollen, and then dried it in the sun, leaving a beautiful rose scar.

The islands of the Philippines were once connected with the mainland. By this time, black people had lived there, but their origin was still unclear. Now there are two views. One view is that nigri Tuo and African Pygmies are related, and they are the same group distributed in subtropical areas in ancient times. Another way of saying it is that the trustee in nigri has nothing to do with the African pygmies, but is coincidentally similar to each other because he has adapted to the tropical hunting life. In order to solve this mystery, Japanese scholars collected 350 local blood samples on 1976, trying to explore the origin of negri's trustee by analyzing dozens of enzymes and blood types contained in blood. But the result only complicates the mystery. Because these researchers also found blood types that are considered to be white in the blood samples they collected. At this time, scientific research makes people more confused.
