Tabon Cave - Let's Revisit History at Quezon, Palawan


The earliest evidence of man, himself, in the Philippines: which is also the earliest appearance of modern man - homo sapiens sapiens - in these islands, is that of the TABON MAN of Palawan.  The discovery of human fossils was made by a National Museum team headed by the late Dr. Robert Fox. The fossil is composed of the skull cap, or the frontal skull bone, two fragments of jawbones and some teeth. The set of fossils suggest that are at least three individuals.
