Where Do the Saiyans Come From?

Discussion, generally of an in-universe nature, regarding any aspect of the franchise (including movies, spin-offs, etc.) such as: techniques, character relationships, internal back-history, its universe, and more.

How do you explain the diversity in physical characteristics if they both were native to the planet? The Tsufuru were the small and weak because of the gravity whereas the Saiyans were big and strong. If the gravity here on earth were greater than it is now and by means of a miracle, we all survived I would guess that all living animate creatures would be of a smaller stature.
The Saiyans are very much like the Klingons and Jem'Hadar.

I am reposting my comments here that I presented over there.

I hold to the timeline because Kaiô-sama is not a very good source for information. It has been shown in the manga and anime that if he is not specifically paying attention to something he does not know what is going on there. When Kakarrot visits his planet when looking for New Namek he mentions Cell and Kaiô-sama is ignorant of what has been going on. For all we know is that, he was busy seeing how far he could pee while the Saiyans arrived on Planet Plant and then when he happened to look they were there and he just figured that they were native to the planet. In addition, Toriyama’s notes from Herms just states that another group lived on the planet. The notes does not state whether the Saiyans were natives or not.
