Glancing Into an Ancient Filipino Tradition

Glancing Into an Ancient Filipino Tradition



“The preservation of culture in the midst of modernism is a remarkable endeavor.”

An experience of Benguet especially in the Municipality of Mankayan, which is the northernmost part of the province in Luzon, Philippines, gives a glimpse of the primeval period in the Filipino’s celebration of life. This ancient celebration is called the Cañao of the Kankanaey people and the rest of the tribes in Cordillera.
