I have not seen a Tagbanua quiver (particularly the belt hook) like this before. Thus I tend to be on the side of the Borneo origin. I must say though that quivers from Palawan and Borneo can easily be mixed up by an untrained eye.

The Tagbanua and Tao't Batu (both of Palawan, Philippines) used quivers that may be difficult to differentiate, as it is possible that one may have adopted the technology from the other. My 2 cents.
