DuBois "The Manóbos of Mindanáo" by John M. Garvan is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as an ethnographic study that examines the culture, society, and physical characteristics of the Manóbo people, a tribal group from the eastern region of Mindanáo in the Philippines. The book aims to document various aspects such as their classification, distribution, customs, and beliefs, offering a detailed account of this indigenous community. The opening of the book introduces readers to the geographical and sociological context in which the Manóbos reside. Garvan begins by defining key terms and explaining the classification and geographical distribution of the Manóbo and adjacent tribes within eastern Mindanáo. He delves into the complexities surrounding the term “Manóbo,” emphasizing how it has been used by both outsiders and the people themselves, often reflecting varying degrees of cultural affiliation and social status. The initial chapters lay a foundational understanding that will be built upon as the author explores their physical characteristics and cultural practices in greater depth.
