CELSO L. LOBREGAT Representative District I Zamboanga City has a rich and colorful history as early as the 13th and 14th centuries, HON. MANUEL JOSE M. DALIPE Representative District II when it was the center of barter trade among the Chinese-Malays and local natives. “Samboangan” comes from the Malay word “Sambuan”, meaning, the long pole used to EXECUTIVE BRANCH move the vintas. Some were of the opinion that the name Zamboanga could have been derived from the Malay word “Jambangan” which means “a pot or place of flowers.” HON. MARIA ISABELLE G. CLIMACO-SALAZAR City Mayor The Spaniards made their presence felt in 1593 with a Catholic Mission briefly established LEGISLATIVE BRANCH at La Caldera, now known as Recodo. However, the City traces its foundation to June 23, HON. CESAR S. ITURRALDE City Vice Mayor 1635 when Fr. Melchor De Vera, a Spanish Jesuit and an Engineer, laid the cornerstone of what is now historic Fort Pilar. Fort Pilar became the center of settlement and provided protection from pirates. In 1872, the Spanish Crown formally proclaimed the settlement as Elected Members-District I “Leal y Valiente Villa.” The long and relatively continuous presence of the Spaniards amidst HON. RODOLFO M. BAYOT Sangguniang Panlungsod Member diverse Filipino ethno-linguistic groups spawned the unique language “Chavacano”, an HON. JOSEPHINE E.

    Module 1: Arts and Crafts of Mindanao

    Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Regional Office IX, Zamboanga Peninsula 7 Zest for Progress Zeal of Partnership ARTS Quarter 3 - Module 1: Arts and Crafts of Mindanao Name of Learner: ___________________________ Grade & Section: ___________________________ Name of School: ___________________________ WHAT I NEED TO KNOW In this module, you will be learning the different arts and crafts of Mindanao – the salient features of arts of Mindanao by showing the relationship of the elements of arts and processes among the diverse cultural communities in the country. Thus, you will also learn how lines, shapes, forms, value, color, texture and space give more meaning and significance to an artwork. This module will help you explore the arts of people of Mindanao and how animism and the Islamic religion fused together and produced a uniquely Filipino artistic tradition. The arts and crafts of Mindanao include their cultural attire, textiles, tapestries, crafts, accessories and body ornaments which are a combination of designs from indigenous people that resides in the regions and the colorful and rich influence from their indigenous belief system. Most of their crafts are made of materials that are abundant in their areas. Their designs are derived from their surroundings and represent their cultural community. Some are used for religious activities while some have utilitarian functions and even became large industry for them. Even until now, the skills in weaving, sculpting and crafting have been an important part of their community. Thus, these become the people’s way of living and their means of survival. These are passed on from generation to generation.

    Archaeological Survey of Southern Zamboanga and the Sulu Archipelago

    Archaeological Survey of Southern Zamboanga and the Sulu Archipelago Received 24 June I968 ALEXANDER SPOEHR* HE Sulu Archipelago is of archaeological interest in that it. forms a southern route of T entry into the Philippines and in historic times was a trading center for the exchange of goods between the Moluccas, Borneo, Sulu itself, China, and mainland Southeast Asia. At the same time, it has had close relations with the_S9utl1~rn pjl.rt of the ZambQanga_ PeninsUla, aswellas wIth northern coastalBorneo (se;-Fig. I). Previous archaeological explorations in Zamboanga and Sulu are summarized in Beyer (1947:318-338). These had as their primary interest the recovery of Chinese and Southeast Asian trade ceramics, as exemplified by the Michigan survey (Guthe 1929) and the work of resident officials such as F. G. Roth. No stratigraphic excavations have ever been under­ taken in the area. During July and August 1967, I conducted an archaeological survey of the southern tip of Zamboanga Peninsula, J 010, and Siasi for the purpose of locating midden sites suitable for stratigraphic excavations. This note reports on the results of the survey. Survey collections are deposited at the National Museum, Manila. ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY Certain practical problems confront any archaeological survey of the region. The southern tip of Zamboanga Peninsula has a good coastal road system linking the principal barrios. However, the limited road systems of Basilan and Jolo link a few coastal points by roads across each island, which makes land survey difficult, while other islands in the Sulu archi­ pelago lack road systems altogether. Consequently, survey by sea for the Sulu islands is imperative.
