Why can't Filipinos "just google" their ancient history?
I saw a post about Filipinos having little to no idea about their ancient culture that it frustrates them because Spanish influence is so dominant that they can't find that many sources on the ancient. It's sad for those who wants to reconnect, because other cultures can just google it, while we cannot.
But we should have ideas about it, despite the great deculturization. The people passed the culture by writing, not just oral, because we were really educated since then. The historians can also check the nearby cultures Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei to check the validity of these records. Also, Amaya, a series about Ancient Tagalog Culture, has been aired without so much complaints fron NHC.
So where are these sources???
Not on google. Not even in google scholar.
They are in hard-to-find books around Manila. When they are written by national historians, these publications are usually in very limited supply. Major Unis compete to get these books, so check there as well. (but like, covid. So fuck)
They're in major university databases. UP, LaSalle, Ateneo, and UST have legit sources, and are most likely proofread by NHC if it got published. UP has the most database, unfortunately, UP researchers are kinda... Madamot. They hide their papers and findings, and you have to be enrolled as student to have access to the database.
As far as I know, you can access DLSU database even if not student (cuz I've tried it), pero manuscripts lang. I'm already a graduate and thus, got no access anymore. So are my friends.
To those currently enrolled in these major universities, please, I beg you, borrow those books in your library and share some small info. Please search in your online history database. These children are just thirsting to reconnect to their ancient culture.
Yun lang po. Daghang Salamat.
Absolutely natural lighting!
No filters. No photoshopping. This is the sunlight streaming through the trees behind Anawan Rock.
So, yes, the photos would have been taken somewhere in or very near Anawan’s camp site.
