Bongao on Tawi-tawi Island in the Philippines, part of the old Sulu Sultanate.

Thanks for posting this especially since this has provenance.

Maraming salamat!

This datu's name is also written in Jawi above the English inscription. Beautiful find, Albert

Wait a minute
If the note is dated from 1901 and the moro is 20 years old.
1901-20 = 1881
Late 19th c. and not 1901

Yup, as Albert already mentioned: "20 year old Moro Taming, back in 1901." ;)

Thanks for posting, Albert!
