POTTERY - The Philippine pottery tradition peaked during the Metal Age, from 200BC to AD900, when Filipinos that time explored specialized pottery forms, designs, and techniques—a period referred to as the Golden Age of Pottery. The discovery of a 3500-year-old secondary burial jar from the Manunggul Cave of Tabon Caves in Lipuun Point, Palawan proves that pottery in the Philippines started as early as the Neolithic period. Found in the early Sixties, the burial jar is incised with curvilinear scroll designs painted with hematite.
