Sell BARANGAY Sixteenth-Century Philippine Culture and Society by William Henry Scott ( HARD TO FIND ) best price

This book seeks to answer the question: What did the Spaniards actually say about the Filipino people when they first met them? It is hoped that the answer to that question will permit Filipino readers today to pay a vicarious visit to the land of their ancestors four centuries ago. Part 1 describes Visayan culture in eight chapters on physical appearance, food and farming, trades and commerce, religion, literature and entertainment, natural science, social organization, and warfare. Part 2 surveys the rest of the archipelago from south to north. Copyright 2015 306 Pages BRAND NEW!
