9th-10th Century Golden Tara
of the Philippines 🇵🇭

The Golden Tara was discovered in 1917 along the banks of Wawa River in Agusan.  It was kept in the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, Illinois since 1922. Henry Otley Beyer, the Philippines’s pioneer anthropologist-archaeologist, and some experts have agreed on its identity and have dated it to 900-950 A.D.  They cannot, however, place its provenance because of its distinct features.

 The golden statue is made of 21-karat gold, weighs 4 pounds and measures 5 inches in height.  It is a figure of the Hindu-Buddhist goddess Tara.

The 21- karat Hindu or Buddhist deity statuette, better known as The Golden Tara, found in 1917 by a Manobo woman named Bilay Campos on a muddy bank of Wawa River in Esperanza, Agusan del Sur is a testament of an elaborate and complex culture and society of pre-colonial Agusan del Sur.

DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN

Tula ni Jeremiah Chavez Eufemio DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN Sa lagaslas ng dalampasigan  Doon ko natagpuan ang kapayapaan Hatid ng hampas ng mga alon At banayad na init ng dapit hapon. Sa mga puting buhangin ng Panubigan Doon ko natagpuan ang karangalan Sa matapat na araw ng pangingisda Nang dumaong ang kanilang bangka sa dalampasigan Salat man sa karangyaan ng modernong pamumuhay Sagana naman sa kasiyahan at kapayapaan Kay gandang pagmasdan, kay sarap balikan Ang dalampasigan sa Panubigan.

Bakit Nakatungó Ang Uhay Ng Palay

Tula ni Rosario Caristea Aka Rio Ramillo  Bakit Nakatungó Ang Uhay Ng Palay Nakatungo akong hindi nahihiya, Kundi sinisinop ang para sa madla, Sapagkat batid kong sa aking aruga, Laging umaasa ang bawat sikmura. Nakatungo ako sa paáng maugat, Siya at ang ako’y laging nag-uusap, Upang alagaan ang butil ng bigas, Na syang magtatawid sa bitukang humpak. Nakatungo ako sa luwad na tigang, Matapos maiga ang nagpálang linang, Laging sumasamo sa sangkalangitang, Huwag ilalakas ang buhos ng ulan. Nakatungo akong may bagbag na puso, Na nakaririnig ng inyong pagsamo, Aking hinahamak ang pagkakalugso, Nang walang hiningang sa gutom mapugto. Nakatungo ako sa araw at gabi, Kahit dinadagil ng mga tutubi, Sapagkat ang minsang malingat nang kási, Nangangahulugang gútom sa marami. Nakatungo akong kapára ng buntis Na nasa kagampang, bigat tinitiis, Aking binabatá ang gintong pasakit, Nakatungo ako dahil umiibig! ~Rosario Caristea BIGKIS NG PANITIK
