UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON HUMANITIES FACULTY Centre for Maritime Archaeology Volume 1 of 1 Defining the Construction Characteristics of Indigenous Boats of the Philippines: The Impact of Technical Change Pre and Post Colonisation by Martin Roderick Stead Thesis for the degree of Master of Philosophy March 2018 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT HUMANITIES FACULTY Maritime Archaeology Thesis for degree of Doctor of Master of Philosophy: Martin Roderick Stead Defining the Construction Characteristics of Indigenous Boats of the Philippines: The Impact of Technical Change Pre and Post Colonisation The thesis reviews the key construction characteristics of traditional vessels used by the inhabitants of the Philippines at the time of European colonisation in the sixteenth century. These included the use of carved rather than sawn wood, the use of outriggers, and the utilisation of dowel technology and the lashed lug technique to maintain hull stability. The social context of the local maritime culture is analysed, as is the relationship between the Philippine communities and the sea. Prior to colonisation, the Philippines were involved in a trading network with other parts of Southeast Asia and particularly China. This thesis will review evidence of the interplay between indigenous technology and external influences from other parts of Asia. After colonisation the Spanish began the construction of European-style vessels using Philippine resources. The impact of this experience on traditional boat-building is traced. The methodology used is an analysis of the relevant maritime archaeological sites and museum collections in the Philippines. This is complemented by an analysis of historical accounts by visitors, priests and colonial officials. The results incorporate the ethnographic studies of traditional boats still in use, carried out by the author. A tour of Southeast Asian sites was undertaken to put the Philippine results in context. The integration of the traditional style of boat building and imported technology to produce the modern Philippine banca is reviewed.

  • BINONDO FOOD TRIP (4 Hours)
    BINONDO FOOD TRIP (4 hours) Eat your way around Binondo, the Philippines’ Chinatown. Located across the Pasig River from the walled city of Intramuros, Binondo was formally established in 1594, and is believed to be the oldest Chinatown in the world. It is the center of commerce and trade for all types of businesses run by Filipino-Chinese merchants, and given the historic reach of Chinese trading in the Pacific, it has been a hub of Chinese commerce in the Philippines since before the first Spanish colonizers arrived in the Philippines in 1521. Before World War II, Binondo was the center of the banking and financial community in the Philippines, housing insurance companies, commercial banks and other financial institutions from Britain and the United States. These banks were located mostly along Escólta, which used to be called the "Wall Street of the Philippines". Binondo remains a center of commerce and trade for all types of businesses run by Filipino- Chinese merchants and is famous for its diverse offerings of Chinese cuisine. Enjoy walking around the streets of Binondo, taking in Tsinoy (Chinese-Filipino) history through various Chinese specialties from its small and cozy restaurants. Have a taste of fried Chinese Lumpia, Kuchay Empanada and Misua Guisado at Quick Snack located along Carvajal Street; Kiampong Rice and Peanut Balls at Café Mezzanine; Kuchay Dumplings at Dong Bei Dumplings and the growing famous Beef Kan Pan of Lan Zhou La Mien.

AirAsia Inflight Magazine The Bajau Laut Spirited Seafarers WANDERLUST / Malay Archipelago Nomads of WORDS & PHOTOGRAPHY: Claudio Sieber/ theclaudiosieberphotography.com Sulu Sea Living on the water, moving from island to island, and sometimes settling along the coastal areas of the Malay Archipelago (though concentrated in the area of the Sulu Sea), the seafaring Bajau Laut live a simple life in some of the most enchanting places on earth. The charming Bajau Laut wooden stilt huts can accommodate anywhere between a family of four or five to a small community encompassing about 30 roommates. These stilt houses, which usually take three weeks to erect, are equipped with only basic necessities. 1. Pictured here is Nalu, a Bajau Laut who migrated from the Philippines 26 years ago. A self- taught carpenter, he can easily design a fishing boat in about a week all by himself, without even an initial sketch to go by. The traditional craft of boat building is passed down from generation to generation. 2. A young Bajau Laut boy flies a home-made kite in the stilt village of Bangau-Bangau, Semporna, Sabah. The simple kite is constructed from a plastic bottle, plastic material, bamboo string and a rope. 3. A stunning vista enjoyed by the Bajau Laut who roam the seas. As a result of comprehensive conservation efforts by Sabah Parks authorities, the reefs at Tun Sakaran Marine Park remain pristine, allowing marine life to flourish. Pictured here is Pulau 1 Bodgaya (Bodgaya Island), the largest among the eight islands within the marine park, which is a prime site for snorkelling 03 and hiking.

  • Responses of 'Carabao' Mango to Various Ripening Agents
    Philippine Journal of Science 148 (3): 513-523, September 2019 ISSN 0031 - 7683 Date Received: 08 Apr 2019 Responses of ‘Carabao’ Mango to Various Ripening Agents Angelyn T. Lacap1, Emma Ruth V. Bayogan1*, Leizel B. Secretaria1, Christine Diana S. Lubaton1, and Daryl C. Joyce2,3 1College of Science and Mathematics, University of the Philippines Mindanao, Mintal, Tugbok District, Davao City 8022 Philippines 2School of Agriculture and Food Sciences, The University of Queensland, Gatton, QLD 4343 Australia 3Department of Agriculture and Fisheries, Ecosciences Precinct, Dutton Park, QLD 4102 Australia Calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with moisture in the air to produce acetylene (C2H2) gas, an analog of ethylene (C2H4). Commercial sources of CaC2 may be contaminated with arsenic and phosphorous, which are also released during a chemical reaction. This constitutes a potentially serious health risk to ripeners and may contaminate the product. Although banned in many countries, CaC2 is still used in the Philippines because equally inexpensive and effective alternatives are lacking. This study investigated the relative efficacy of alternatives for ripening ‘Carabao’ mango. Fruit harvested at –1 107 d after flower induction were treated with CaC2 (2.5, 5.0, or 7.5 g kg ); ethephon (500, 1000, or 1500 μL L–1); Gliricidia sepium leaves (20% w/w); or ‘Cardava’ banana fruit (10% w/w) for 72 h. Mangoes were then held under ambient room conditions [29.9 ± 3.1°C, 77.74 ± 2.9% relative humidity (RH)] for 7 d. Assessments of peel color, firmness, and total soluble solids showed that fruit treated with higher concentrations of ethephon (1000 or 1500 μL L–1) exhibited similar ripening –1 responses as those treated with CaC2.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Dasar Pemikiran Bangsa Indonesia Sejak
    1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Dasar Pemikiran Bangsa Indonesia sejak dahulu sudah dikenal sebagai bangsa pelaut yang menguasai jalur-jalur perdagangan. Sebagai bangsa pelaut maka pengetahuan kita akan teknologi perkapalan Nusantara pun seharusnya kita ketahui. Catatan-catatan sejarah serta bukti-bukti tentang teknologi perkapalan Nusantara pada masa klasik memang sangatlah minim. Perkapalan Nusantara pada masa klasik, khususnya pada masa kerajaan Hindu-Buddha tidak meninggalkan bukti lukisan-lukisan bentuk kapalnya, berbeda dengan bangsa Eropa seperti Yunani dan Romawi yang bentuk kapal-kapal mereka banyak terdapat didalam lukisan yang menghiasi benda porselen. Penemuan bangkai-bangkai kapal yang berasal dari abad ini pun tidak bisa menggambarkan lebih lanjut bagaimana bentuk aslinya dikarenakan tidak ditemukan secara utuh, hanya sisa-sisanya saja. Sejak kedatangan bangsa Eropa ke Nusantara pada abad ke 16, bukti-bukti mengenai perkapalan yang dibuat dan digunakan di Nusantara mulai terbuka. Catatan-catatan para pelaut Eropa mengenai pertemuan mereka dengan kapal- kapal Nusantara, serta berbagai lukisan-lukisan kota-kota pelabuhan di Nusantara yang juga dibuat oleh orang-orang Eropa. Sejak abad ke-17, di Eropa berkembang seni lukis naturalistis, yang coba mereproduksi keadaan sesuatu obyek dengan senyata mungkin; gambar dan lukisan yang dihasilkannya membahas juga pemandangan-pemandangan kota, benteng, pelabuhan, bahkan pemandangan alam 2 di Asia, di mana di sana-sini terdapat pula gambar perahu-perahu Nusantara.1 Catatan-catatan Eropa ini pun memuat nama-nama dari kapal-kapal Nusantara ini, yang ternyata sebagian masih ada hingga sekarang. Dengan menggunakan cacatan-catatan serta lukisan-lukisan bangsa Eropa, dan membandingkan bentuk kapalnya dengan bukti-bukti kapal yang masih digunakan hingga sekarang, maka kita pun bisa memunculkan kembali bentuk- bentuk kapal Nusantara yang digunakan pada abad-abad 16 hingga 18.
