That actually won't tell you much because: 1. The ethnographer who stayed among them may not have recorded it (if it existed) mainly because his/her research was aimed at other things; 2. Outsiders may not have been interested in such things; 3. Any fighting art may have been kept secret from outsiders. There is the possibility that it didn't exist, but the likelihood of that is hard to determine, given the above. The historical records from the Spanish era may give some clues...but those would be subject to the reader's interpretation, of course. What we do have present in Aeta ethnographies are mention of fines/punishments for engaging in conflict - but no idea of how Aetas fought, as in using a particular fighting system. Sorry if this is rather uninformative, but this is what I have now. If I find new information, I'll share it with you. In peace, Bot _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
