Focusing on the theory that speaks of the people of Southeast Asia being hunter-gatherers, it is believed that they have populated these lands developing agricultural activities.

We must also analyze the fact that the most populated cities arose from the places where there was more fertile land. These places were the coastal plains and valleys of the great rivers.
