What is History and Culture of Mindanao about?
Mindanao is the second largest island in the Philippines. Archaeological evidence shows human activity on Mindanao dating back 10,000 years. Ancient cultures show influences from Hindu-Buddhist societies in Indonesia and Malaysia between 900-1500 AD. Muslim sultanates like Sulu, Lanao and Maguindanao were established in the 16th century, spreading Islam through trade and requiring conversion or tribute from locals. However, the interior and parts of the north remained predominantly animist.
