SYNOPSIS:
Hungaw follows Humadapnon’s journey to seek Nagmalitong Yawa’s hand for marriage after successfully retrieving the biday or boat that serves as her tuos or mark of engagement. After an initial misunderstanding with Labaw Donggon, Mali’s father, Humadapnon is well-received by her relatives and their marriage is arranged and attended by many respectable people.
This volume highlights the intricate social dynamics of the Panay-Bukidnon society, particularly in conducting the hungaw, a traditional wedding ceremony, and showcases their beliefs and practices toward hospitality, kinship, marriage, and the supernatural.
