    Bagbagto

    !
    !
    BAGBAGTO or Stone War is a composition based on a well-known gibberish chant of the
    Igorot tribe from Mountain Province in the Philippines. A tradition that is not practiced
    anymore, the chanting of Bagbagto is done during the dry season to ensure a good harvest:
    !
    The Igorots assembled at a dry river bed where opposing teams faced each other across the
    river and proceeded to throw stones. Those who were able to cross the river bed amidst a hail
    of stones are declared victors. Losers and victors alike received wounds and lost teeth but a
    bloody battle was thought to ensure a good crop of sweet potato. Curiously...no revenge was
    taken by the losers and the maimed were helped by the victors to get up and get assistance
    from the local herb doctors to stop the bleeding. (source: Physical Activities in the Philippines
    During the Pre-Spanish Period by Janice Ann Beran, Iowa State University)
