Philippines: The People
Product Description
This work is intended for children aged 9-14 years. The Philippine archipelago is home to over seventy different groups of peoples, each with its own traditions, customs and history. “The Philippines The People” is an exploration of these peoples, from the largest group, the Tagolog, to the Igorot highlanders, and the country’s Muslim peoples, the Manobo, explaining how they joined together through history to form a united country. Other topics include: the Tasaday tribe controversy; Spanish and American rule; the Chinese population; Ferdinand and Imedla Marcos; barong tagalog and traditional dress; recreational activities, such as martial arts, yo-yos, and cockfighting; and respect and family traditions.
