Tribal dart quiver

Nonoy Tan · 9th February 2008, 10:56 AM

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.

Here it is.
Tau't Bato tribe from the Philippines. In the top of the cover poison was poured to put the tip of the arrows in.

The picture of the warrior with blowpipe and quiver is a member of the Tau't Bato tribe.

The quiver shown as Tau't Batu of Palawan is the same as the ones used by the Tagbanua (and Batak negritos of Palawan). The quiver in question, on the other hand, has a wooden hip hook design that is dissimilar. Therefore, I do not think that it is from Palawan - i.e. not Batak, not Tau't Batu, and not Tagbanua.

You right Nonoy Tan also the rattan binding is different from the dajaks
also the dart looks different

The top never Used as poison store they have poison disc where they prepare
the poison to put on the darts .

I also vote Dayak Borneok - notice the aso on the outside of the quiver and the deity on the cylinder.....Dayak motifs........
