1. What are the main distinctions between primary and secondary sources?
 Primary sources can be described as those sources that are closest to the origin of
the information. Secondary sources often use generalizations, analysis,
interpretation, and synthesis of primary sources. Example of secondary sources
include the history books, stories, encyclopedia, and historical article.

2. Do you agree that all primary sources justify history? Discuss your points of arguments.
 I agree because primary is the one who directly give experience or participated in
the said event. It also considered as original sources that directly narrates the details
of the event.

3. Read the excerpts about the TABON MAN then do a comparative analysis on the
different accounts presented. (Look for excerpts over the internet).
 According to Robert B. Fox, the fossil bones are those of Homo sapiens and
according to William Henry Scott are agreed that it belonged to modern man and he
discovered that is, Homo sapiens as distinguished from those mid-Pleistocene
species nowadays called Homo erectus. In Robert B. Fox a preliminary study of the
fossil bones of Tabon Man shows that it is above average in skull dimensions when
compared to the modern Filipinos. In William Henry Scott the skullcap
measurements are mostly nearly like those of Ainus and Tasmanians. It means that
Tabon Man was “pre-mongoliod”. Mongoloid being the term anthropologist apply to
the racial stock which entered Southeast Asia during the Holocene and absorbed
earlier peoples to produce the Modern Malay, Indonesian, Filipino, and Pacific
peoples popularly and unscientifically called “ The Brown Race.
