Abstract
The island Southeast Asia (also referred to in the literature as the Malay, the Southeast Asian, and, more recently, the Indo-Malaysian Archipelago), which includes present-day Indonesia, East Malaysia, and the Philippines, is an area with very diverse populations. Archaeological records indicate that this archipelago has been a dynamic theatre of human development and migration for tens of millenniums, and thus is of great interest in terms of human genome diversity. The Indonesian part of the archipelago alone is home to around 500 ethnic populations, each with distinct cultural and linguistic characteristics, representing vast genome diversity.
