There's evidence that our Igorot ancestors repurposed human jawbones and used these as handles for gongs. This practice had been mentioned in historical records from the Spanish period. Recent/modern historians like Albert Ernest Jenks and William Henry Scott also cited the practice in the books they've written about Igorot/Cordillera history. There's also an abundance of photographic evidence. Just like this photo taken between 1904 and 1920. The photo shows two Igorot men holding gongs, the handles of which were made from human jawbones. The theory is that these jawbones were taken from the heads of slain enemy tribes. It's a historical fact that our Igorot ancestors used to practice headhunting. This photo is from the Graphic Arts Collection of the Firestone Library of Princeton University. https://www.cordilleransun.com/2022/07/igorots-used-human-jawbones-as-handles.html

Have you heard about Hofstede's National Culture Model?
If so, do you think it faithfully reflects the reality of nations?

1. Broadens Perspectives: Partners from different cultures bring distinct worldviews, beliefs, and traditions. This diversity can help each person see life through a wider lens, encouraging empathy, tolerance, and a deeper appreciation for other ways of thinking and living. 2. Strengthens... read more

I found this bracelet thrift shopping. What culture is it from?
I was thrift shopping when I came across this beautiful bracelet. And I would love to know what culture it's from! I like to be educated. So if you have any suggestions or if you have seen these before I'd love to know about it!

Why do so many men nowadays have feminine sounding voices?
Not trying to insult anyone it's just a general curiosity that I've noticed from comparing older and newer television shows and movies and being out in public is that over the last 10-15 years at least a lot of men have went from sounding like Sam Elliott a booming bassy voice to a higher...
