The Bagobo Moros:
The 23 men and 7 women who lived in a village of nipa huts on the Philippine Reservation originated from the western coast of the island of Mindanao. Considered skilled farmers and hunters, the Bagobos were also known for their beaded handiwork. Described as the friendliest of the Filipinos, the Bagobos did not fit the image of "primitive" people. Visitors found them handsome, talkative, and picturesquely attired in colorful pants, skirts, and jackets adorned with handmade ornamental beading. |
