Faces of our Ancestors

Austronesian ancestors,

and listen to the story that

they tell of ages past.

Learn to recognize a remarkable

civilization that inspired the

legends and myths of the

Phoenix and Griffin.

Discover the peoples of distant

lands that came to our shores,

some of whom lived and died

in the Philippine islands,

becoming part of our rich

genetic pool and heritage.

See yourself in the light

of an unforgettable civilization

reborn inside you.

Not just a copy,

but like the Phoenix

refined by fire,

to fly higher and stronger

carried by the wings

of those who had gone before us.
