'''Aeta''' (Ayta {{IPAc-en|'|aɪ|t|ə}} {{respell|EYE|tə}}), '''Agta''' and '''Dumagat''' (not to be confused with [[Visayans|Visayan]] settlers in the coastal [[Northern Mindanao]] to contrast them from inland [[Lumad|indigenous Mindanaoans]]), are collective terms for several indigenous [[Filipinos]] who live in various parts of the island of [[Luzon]] in the [[Philippines]]. They are also known as "'''Philippines Negrito'''", and included in the wider [[Negrito]] grouping of Southeast Asia, with whom they share superficial common physical characteristics such as dark skin tones, short statures, frizzy to [[curly-hair]], and a higher frequency of naturally lighter hair colour ([[blond|blondism]]) relative to the general population. They are thought to be among the earliest inhabitants of the Philippines, preceding the [[Austronesian people|Austronesian]] migrations.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Aeta |url=http://www.peoplesoftheworld.org/text?people=Aeta |publisher=peoplesoftheworld.org |access-date=June 16, 2012 |archive-date=February 26, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120226155630/http://www.peoplesoftheworld.org/text?people=Aeta |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name="Larena">{{Cite journal |last1=Larena |first1=Maximilian |last2=McKenna |first2=James |last3=Sanchez-Quinto |first3=Federico |date=2021 |title=Philippine Ayta possess the highest level of Denisovan ancestry in the world |journal=Current Biology |volume=31 |issue=19 |pages=4219–4230 |doi=10.1016/j.cub.2021.07.022|pmid=34388371 |pmc=8596304 }}</ref> Regardless, modern Aeta populations have significant Austronesian admixture and speak [[Austronesian languages]].<ref name="Reid2"/>
