Résumé
TLDRBefore the arrival of the Spanish, the Philippines had a rich cultural heritage with its own governance, laws, religion, art, literature, and language. This is supported by historical accounts from Spanish explorers. The indigenous Filipinos had a unique system of writing known as 'alibata'. Their literature comprised oral narratives such as folk stories (kwentong bayan), myths (mito), and legends (alamat). Myths were narratives considered sacred, often associated with theology and rituals. Legends, believed by both tellers and listeners, spoke of heroes, migration, and war, unlike myths that were more spiritual. Music played a pivotal role in oral literature, with various songs for occasions like lullabies, weddings, and battles, collectively known as 'kantahing bayan'. Wisdom literature (karunungang bayan), comprising of riddles and proverbs, conveyed societal norms and values. Before colonization, literature was orally passed and occasionally written on bamboo and rocks. However, many written records were incinerated by Spanish colonizers, considering them demonic.

Chronologie
- 00:00:00 - 00:05:00
Before the arrival of the Spanish, the Philippines had its own culture, government, laws, religion, arts, literature, and language, as acknowledged by Spanish historians like Padre Pedro Chirino in 1604. He noted that Filipinos had their writing system called Alibata, written vertically and left to right in paragraphs. However, many manuscripts were destroyed by the Spanish colonizers, claiming they were of the devil. The literary forms from this period include folklore such as myths, legends, and stories, which reflect the ancestors' way of life and beliefs. Myths were regarded as sacred and related to theology and rituals, encompassing cosmic tales and stories of deities, exemplified by Filipino myths such as those of the Maranao, and other tales involving gods and goddesses like Lakapati, the goddess of fertility.

The literature of the native era also included legends and fables meant to entertain and impart moral lessons. Legends were believed to be true by those who narrated and heard them, unlike myths which were considered sacred. These narrate migrations, battles, and victories of heroes and leaders, covering hidden treasures, saints, and supernatural beings. Other native literary examples include folk songs and riddles, which expressed emotions and taught cultural values and traditions. Such forms of literature like riddles and whispers served as entertainment and cultural heritage among early Filipinos. These were often orally passed down, with few written records due to their destruction by Spanish priests. Despite this, the Filipino people had a rich heritage of oral literature before colonization, expressed through songs, proverbs, epics, and various oral traditions.
