    ( Arts in the Cordillera


    Region and Muslim
    South
    SARAH JANE B. BASUBAS
    Decorative
    Realistic or magical
    Cordillera Region art, especially in woodcarving, can be generally characterized as highly
    representational of human and animal form.
    Non figurative art is also found in the
    shapes and designs on:
    Shield spear Head axes
    Adoration in gods and supernatural beings expressed
    through the rituals and arts of cordillera in general.
     The importance of rice agriculture was underscored
    by rice gods and granary guardians represented in
    carved figure that were believed to the seat of the rice
    spirits.
     The granary rice is called bulol, were son important in
    the rice planters’ culture that each was given its own
    names.
    The male bulol is called Pumboldayan
    and his wife
    Music
     The Cordillera have also their musical instrument aside from woodcraft.
    Some of the musical instruments are:
    Pas-ing

    A two-stringed instrument of the Apayaos


    Albon Sulibao Konlinga
    - a rice drum - a conical drum - a cylindrical drum
    Koleleng or balingling Diw-diw-as
    - A nose flute - construction of thin bamboo
    pipes of different lengths tied together,
    played by moving the instrument across the mouth
    without touching the lips, while blowing into the open
    ends.
    Among the percussion instruments used
    by the Cordillera were:
     Gansa and the bamboo buzzers called Bilbil or Bangkaka

    Gansa
     Bongabong, a pair of percussion sticks, played to announce a
    violent death

    Ifugao house
    Due to the cold climate in the Cordillera Region, the
    Ifugaos construct their houses in a manner that assures their
    protection from the low temperature and the rain.
    Some of them still build houses on top of mountains, on
    plateaus, and on top of tree trunks.
    Ifugao House
    The Muslim where the minority Muslim population is concentrated
    has about nine (9) ethanic-linguistic groups. They are:

    *Taosug *Molbog
    *Maranao *Jama Mapun
    *Maguindanao
    *Samal
    *Yakan
    *Sanggil
    *Badjao
    Woodcrafts
     The predominant materials of muslim art are:

    Brass WOOD Cloth


     But NO LESS important are:

    Silver Gold Iron Horn Ivory Leather Bamboo Matting


    This Muslim akil or wood carving, is best
    represented by brasswork
    An ornamental tea pot
    Both associated with the betel-nut chewing
    common among some Muslim Filipinos
    The gorgeous tray often used as modern
    table top or wall decoration
    These weapons are invariable dignified
    and softened by artist effects
    The Sarimanok is mistakably fowl-like in form. The head and wings are always
    present. A fish invariably is associated with it either hanging by the beah, held in the
    claw or serving as a base from the SARIMANOK. The most important quality of it is
    always executed in the round and never, like the naga or niaga (dragon like)
    motif. The sarimanok has been transformed into a symbol of power, wealth and rank.
