MATIGSALUG
TANGKULO COSTUME
MATIGSALUG are the original inhabitants of the Salug River (now called the Davao River). Thus, their
name comes from the words matig, meaning “from,” and salug, meaning “river.” Over the years, the
tribe moved upstream of the Salug River due to constant raids and harassment. They were pushed
further inland because of the influx of various groups, such as the Ilocanos, Batangueños, Ilonggos,
and Cebuanos in the area. This place is not one of those that would be in your places to find in the
Philippines:

They believe in one God “Magbabaya” (the ruler of all) who has minor gods and goddesses under his
command (i.e. Ibabasok – who watches over growth of crops; Dagingon – who watches over planting
and harvest season; Bulalakaw – who is the god of the rivers and lakes, Tumpas Nanapiyaw or
Itumbangol – who watches over the base of the earth night and day). Marriage is almost always
through parental arrangements. A kaula-an (bride price) is to be paid by the groom to the bride’s
family.
