    CULTURE AND SOCIETY

    OF PILAR, BOHOL
    Embracing the differences and uniqueness of one’s
    society and culture.
     Pilar is an interior town which is considered a fourth
    class municipality of the province of Bohol. It is a part of
    the third congressional district of the province with a
    total land area of 6,248 hectares.

     It has a population of 27, 276 people.

     Its total land area is politically subdivided into 21 barangays

     Pilar was once a barangay of the town of Sierra-Bullones and once


    called Lungsodaan as it was the old seat of the municipal
    government during the reign of the Spaniards.

     Pilar then became a separate municipality when the late President


    Carlos P. Garcia issued the Executive Order No. 460 making the
    barangay a new municipality.
    The Eskaya is an
    indigenous tribe found in the

    hinterlands of the Pilar, towns


    of Duero, Guindulman, and Sierra
    Bullones, Bohol’s southeast interior.
    The settlement of this tribe is at
    Biabas, Guindulman, established
    in the early 20th century by one
    Mariano Datahan. Datahan died
    in the year 1949.
    A second settlement was established at Taytay,
    under the municipality of Duero in the year 1951;
    founded by Fabian Baja under Datahan’s
    instructions. Eventually, the group spread to nearby
    Canta-ub, Lundag, Tambongan, Cadapdapan
    and Fatimah.

    Likewise known as the “Visayan-Eskaya”, the


    community is only found in the island province of
    Bohol. They have a unique cultural heritage, use a
    distinct language and literature, and have
    traditional practices that dates way back to pre-
    Spanish times.
    With regards to their language and script, the Eskayan speech has been
    associated with either of the Hebrew, Greek, and Etruscan languages.
    Recent studies reveal though that the syntax of their language is identical to
    that of Cebuano, leading the researchers to believe that their language is
    actually an elaborate form of Cebuano coding.
    DEPENDING ON WHO YOU ASK) DATING BACK TO BIBLICAL TIMES. THEY BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE
    ORIGINATED FROM A BUTTERFLY CALLED PINYA PAYPAY PLING. THE BUTTERFLY
    INTERACTED WITH A LION AND LIONESS WHO GAVE BIRTH TO A MONKEY. THAT MONKEY MATED
    WITH ANOTHER AND GAVE BIRTH TO THE FIRST HUMANS. THIS IS DEPICTED IN THIS EDUCATIONAL
    CHART FROM THEIR SCHOOL.
    THEIR WRITTEN CHARACTERS ARE BASED ON
    PARTS OF THE BODY, AS CAN BE SEEN IN THIS
    HAND-CARVED WOODEN DEPICTION.

    LANGUAGE ARE RECORDED IN A
    SERIES OF HAND-WRITTEN VOLUMES.
