#blackasians #blackindians • This video is about the various Black People of Asia, Pacific and Australia. • Molluccans • The Moluccan people are an indigenous black community residing in the Moluccan Islands of Indonesia. The Moluccan people's origins can be traced back to Austronesian migrations from Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, with influences from neighboring regions like Papua New Guinea. These migrations over centuries laid the foundation for the diverse genetic makeup and cultural fabric of the Moluccan people. • Sri Lanka kaffirs. • Nestled in the heart of the Indian Ocean, the teardrop-shaped island of Sri Lanka boasts a rich tapestry of cultures, traditions, and histories. Among its diverse inhabitants, one group stands out as a fascinating testament to the island's multicultural heritage – the Sri Lankan Kaffirs. The origins of the Sri Lankan Kaffirs can be traced back to the 16th century, when Portuguese colonialists brought African slaves to the island. These slaves were primarily of Bantu and Khoisan descent, from regions now known as Mozambique, Tanzania, and South Africa. • The Maniq of Thailand • • Deep within the lush rainforests of southern Thailand is a unique and fascinating indigenous group known as the Maniq people. The origins of the Maniq people are shrouded in mystery, but anthropological research suggests that they are part of the broader group of Proto-Malayic ethnic communities. The Maniq people are one of the smallest ethnic groups in Thailand. Genetic studies of the Maniq people have revealed a unique genetic heritage that reflects their isolation and distinct way of life. Their genetic markers show connections to other indigenous groups in the region and ancient populations that inhabited Southeast Asia. The Maniq people often have darker skin and hair, well-suited to their forested environment. • The Semang and Batek of Malaysia • Malaysia, a country renowned for its cultural diversity, is home to the Semang and Batek people, who stand as distinct groups, embodying the ancestral heritage of the region. The origins of the Semang and Batek people trace back to the ancient inhabitants of the Malay Peninsula, contributing to the complex mosaic of Malaysia's indigenous population. These communities are believed to have inhabited the region for thousands of years, preserving their distinct way of life amidst the tides of history. The Semang and Batek people are part of the larger Orang Asli community, which translates to Original People in Malay, highlighting their status as the earliest inhabitants of the peninsula. Research has indicated that these communities share genetic markers with other indigenous populations in Southeast Asia and Australo-Melanesian groups. • East Timor • Nestled in the maritime heart of Southeast Asia lies East Timor, a land of breathtaking landscapes and a people whose history is as rich as the diverse tapestry of their culture. The roots of the East Timorese people can be traced back to Austronesian migrations that took place thousands of years ago. This early migration brought together various ethnic groups, including the Atoni, Tetum, Mambai, and Bunak, among others. The East Timorese population is relatively small, with an estimated 1.3 million people. They inhabit the eastern part of the island of Timor, which is shared with Indonesia. • New Caledonian Kanak People • Nestled in the heart of the South Pacific, New Caledonia is an enchanting archipelago that beckons with its turquoise waters, lush landscapes, and vibrant cultures. Among the mosaic of societies that grace this idyllic haven, the Kanak people stand as a testament to the island's rich history and diverse heritage. This Austronesian group, believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, ventured across vast ocean expanses, eventually settling in the Melanesian islands. • Southern Yemeni (Hadhrami and Shabwah) and Socotra Island people • Yemen, a land of historical significance and cultural diversity, is home to a multitude of ethnic groups and communities, each with their own unique customs, traditions, and identities. • The Vedda. • The Vedda are a minority indigenous group of people in Sri Lanka. The Vedda minority in Sri Lanka may become completely assimilated. Most speak Sinhala instead of their indigenous languages, which are nearing extinction. It has been hypothesized that the Vedda were probably the earliest inhabitants of Sri Lanka and have lived on the island since before the arrival of other ethnic groups in India.
