OH WELL SO MUCH FOR CONJECTURE

HAVEING NEVER BEEN TO PANAY I WAS ONLY GOING FROM THE PEICES I HAD SEEN OR BOUGHT OVER THE YEARS ATTRIBUTED TO THERE. MOST WERE BROUGHT BACK BY THE MILITARY AS SOUVINEERS AROUND WW2 SO I WAS ASSUMEING THERE WAS A LARGE MILITARY PRESENCE THERE WHICH CREATED A DEMAND WHICH I HAD THOUGHT HAD BEEN FILLED LOCALLY. IF THERE IS NO HISTORY OF MAKEING FANCY MONSTER HEAD SWORDS AND OTHER VARIOUS FORMS IN PANAY THEN THEY OBVIOUSLY DID NOT COME FROM THERE. I HAD ELIMINATED MINDANAO AS I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING LIKE THAT AROUND ZAMBOANGA WHEN I WAS THERE JUST THE TRADITIONAL MORO FORMS.
I GUESS IT IS BEST AFTER ALL TO ONLY GO BY WHAT IS WRITTEN IN THE REFRENCE BOOKS AND NOT TO TRY AND FIGURE THINGS OUT ON WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN OVER THE YEARS AS IT CAN BE VERY MISLEADING AND THEN YOU CAN SPREAD THE MISINFORMATION. SO I WILL TRY AND CURB MY CONJECTURE IN FUTURE.
