Manobo Accessories

The following are the names of personal adornments that the Dulangan Manobo people traditionally use: tubaw (head scarf, for male chieftains usually), tedong (cloth head covering), sayap (hat), sapeyo (cap), kemage (headdress), sudong (headdress with comb), pakul (hair tie), tunggal (earring), basak (necklace), sugot (bracelet), tising (ring), sabitan (belt), sigkil (brass anklet), and tekes (beaded anklet for men). In the coming Fridays, some of these items will be individually featured on this blog.

I want to have whatever it is that is hanging from the head of the guy

in this photo. 

I like the supermodel mien of this Manobo girl.

She’s playing a togo, a bamboo harp.
