TAUSUG BELIEFS
AND PRACTICES
JOLO IS THE HOME OF THE TAUSUGS.
TAUSUG COMES FROM THE WORD “TAU”
WHICH MEANS “MAN” AND “SUG” WHICH
MEANS “LAND”. TAUSUGS ARE MUSLIMS
AND PRACTICE THE TENETS OF ISLAM.
One characteristic of the Tausug is preservation of the
family reputation and will never commit an act of
cowardice that will blemish on the family’s name.
“You can never expect a Tausug to run from a good
fight”
They believe that running away is shameful especially
when other members of the family are involved.
