Piña has been woven by the Aklanon or Akeanon people in the province of Aklan, Western Visayas. It is made from the fibers of pineapple leaves and woven using the handloom. The textile is used in fashion and finery, and passed down as heirlooms (Vivas, 2021).
FEAST OF THE BLACK NAZARENE Photo: Wikipedia |
The "Traslación," or procession of the Black Nazarene's image from the Quirino Grandstand to the Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene, more commonly referred to as the Quiapo Church in Manila, is traditionally attended by thousands of Seor Nazareno devotees every January 9th (Vivas, 2021).
And many more.
As a matter of fact, even us didn't got to see these sorts of famous immaterial things. It's amazing that our fellow Filipinos can create something so iconic. They are the reason for the existence of this intangible culture, even now.
Despite the fact that some fellow Filipinos are unaware of their beautiful artifacts, beliefs, and traditional skills, even though we are aware that our culture is gradually disappearing, the history still lives up to those values.
