The historiography of the Philippines includes historical and archival research and writing on the history of the Philippine archipelago including the islands of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.^[1]^[2]

Before the arrival of Spanish colonial powers the Philippines did not actually exist. Southeast Asia is classified as part of the Indosphere^[3]^[4] and the Sinosphere.^[5]^[6] The archipelago has direct contact with China during Song dynasty (960-1279)^[7] and has been a part of the Srivijaya and Majapahit empires.^[8]
