Pre-Colonial+Philippines+(Culture)

====The ancient Filipinos had a culture that was basically Malayan in structure form. They had written languages that trace their origin to the Austronesian parent-stock and used them not only as media of daily communication, but also as vehicles for their expression of the literary mods. The bulk of their literature was folk literature which presented a group heritage and reflected their daily lives. They had music and dances for almost all occasions and a wide variety of musical instruments indicative of their ingenuity.====
