AustronésiensOn appelle Austronésiens les membres des populations parlant des langues austronésiennes. Un usage plus ancien est celui de malayo-polynésiens, mais aujourd’hui, l’expression « langues malayo-polynésiennes » ne désigne plus que l'une des branches de la famille austronésienne, quoique de loin la plus nombreuse ( sur un total de austronésiennes). Certains chercheurs utilisent, comme équivalent de malayo-polynésien, le terme de « nusantarien » (de nusantara, ancien mot javanais signifiant « îles de l’extérieur », qui désignait à l'origine les îles de l’archipel indonésien autres que Java).
