Culture

In Balete, the Aklanon people-based piña industry preserves Filipino traditional weaving. Raquel Eliserio, as its cultural master won the AGAATI's Global Eco Artisan Awards 2021. She founded a haeab-ean (weaving area) in her Barangay Feliciano and another in neighboring Tangalan. Her over a hundred looms and piña fiber knotters utilize her unique suksuk or inlay. The counted warp and weft are pulled by cotton threads, numbered with Dicranopteris linearis sticks and the piña textile is inlaid with designs.[21]

Landmarks

  • Agtawagon Hill - located at the south-eastern portion of Barangay Morales, about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) away from the town center. During the Philippine Revolution, the hill was the last line of defense of the Filipino patriots during the Spanish-Filipino conflict.[citation needed] The same hill had served as camp for Filipino guerrillas during Japanese occupation during the Second World War.[citation needed] Foxholes had been built on the summit of the hill overlooking potential enemy movement.
