Answer:
1.Mangyan is the generic name for the eight indigenous groups found on the island of Mindoro, southwest of the island of Luzon, the Philippines, each with its own tribal name, language, and customs. The total population may be around 280,000, but official statistics are difficult to determine under the conditions of remote areas, reclusive tribal groups and some having little if any outside world contact.
2.Traditionally, all Mangyan tribes wear beaded accessories made of plant seeds. Today, the Hanunuo, Buhid and Alangan Mangyans make colorful necklaces, bracelets, anklets, keychains, rosaries and other beaded accessories from commercial glass beads. Custom orders are accepted.
