The Hanging Coffins of Sagada and Other Filipino Funeral ...

What this episode covers

More than 2,000 years ago, the Igorots of Sagada began their burial tradition of hanging coffins, which survived despite most of the Philippines being converted to Christianity by the Spanish. Today, the hanging coffins, "lamay," "pasiyam," "babang luksa," and "pamahiin" (superstitions) such as"sukob" and "pagpag" are some of the many funeral customs that Filipinos are known for. • Episode photos: instagram.com/p/B3DGO_JnL7a / References: storiesafterdark.ph / Facebook page: facebook.com/storiesafterdarkph / Twitter: twitter.com/afterdarkph / Support the show on Patreon: patreon.com/storiesafterdark / Share your feedback, case suggestions and personal stories: [email protected]
