Palawani

Location: The Palawani tribe primarily resides in southern Palawan, particularly in Quezon, Brooke’s Point, and Bataraza, including some nearby islands.

They are divided into four ethno-linguistic subgroupings. These are the Quezon Palawano which is also known as the Central Palawano; the Bugsuk Palawano or South Palawano; Brooke's Point Palawano; and Southwest Palawano.

Culture: They blend indigenous customs with Islamic influences, featuring oral storytelling, weaving, and traditional attire, while some communities retain animistic beliefs.

Economy: Their livelihoods include both farming and fishing, depending on inland or coastal residence, with some trading of goods like fish and rice.

They hunt wild animals using spears with a lethal poison at the tip. They catch fish by using a special root sap that is diluted in a shallow stream or river. 

Clothes: Their choices of clothing were g-strings for men and patadyong for women or the so-called native wraps similar to the more popular malong.
