You're welcome my friends. I found these doing a Google search looking for Moro images. I was hoping to find a picture of a man or woman wearing a gunong, but alas, no luck.

That's Datu Inuk, Datu Piang's war chief. His ear was lopped off by a kris during a fight. Since it was believed that a man can't go to heaven without all of the body parts intact, a crude attempt was made to reattached the ear, which was botched. So what did ol' Inuk do? He fashioned a bamboo tube, and had it inserted in the hole so he can hear.
