Album Info:
(DSC02182) GINUM is a Bagobo thanksgiving festival that may last for one to four days. "Ginum" means "to drink" or "drinking". Indeed, the festival features "balaba" (wine) in jars placed in each corner of the long house of the datu, where the celebration takes place. A "tambara" or bamboo altar is placed in each of the various parts of the house. Two bamboo poles (patan-an) decorated with strips of palm leaves and cloth become the focus of the celebration. That is why the Ginum is also called "pista sa kawayan" or the bamboo festival. (Taken from an adjacent signage)
