SPANISH REGIME – The Spanish colonial period of the Philippines began when
explorer Ferdinand Magellan came to the islands in 1521 and claimed it as a
colony for the Spanish Empire. The period lasted until the Philippine Revolution in
1898.
UPPER-PALEOLITHIC – The Upper Paleolithic or Upper Paleolithic also called
the Late Stone Age is the third and last subdivision of the Paleolithic or Old Stone
Age. Very broadly, it dates to between 50,000 and 12,000 years ago the beginning
of the Holocene, according to some theories coinciding with the appearance of
behavioral modernity in early modern humans, until the advent of the Neolithic
Revolution and agriculture.
NEOLITHIC – The Neolithic period is the final division of the Stone Age, with a
wide-ranging set of developments that appear to have arisen independently in
several parts of the world.
MESOLITHIC – The Mesolithic is the Old-World archaeological period between
the Upper Paleolithic and the Neolithic. The term Epipaleolithic is often used
synonymously, especially for outside northern Europe, and for the corresponding
period in the Levant and Caucasus.
MID-PALEOLITHIC - The Middle Paleolithic is the second subdivision of the
Paleolithic or Old Stone Age as it is understood in Europe, Africa and Asia. The
term Middle Stone Age is used as an equivalent or a synonym for the Middle
Paleolithic in African archeology. The Middle Paleolithic broadly spanned from
300,000 to 30,000 years ago.
LOWER-PALEOLITHIC- The Middle Paleolithic followed the Lower Paleolithic
and recorded the appearance of the more advanced prepared-core tool-making
technologies such as the Mousterian. Whether the earliest control of fire by
hominins dates to the Lower or to the Middle Paleolithic remains an open question.
