    The Ati are a Negrito ethnic group located in the Visayas region of the Philippines. Their small population is concentrated on the islands of Boracay, Panay, and Negros. They are genetically related to other Negrito groups in the country. Two festivals, Ati-atihan and Dinagyang, are held in their honor and feature performers who paint themselves to look like the Ati people. The Tumandok people are an indigenous group living in the mountainous areas of Panay island. Despite once being culturally connected to other Visayan groups, their isolation has allowed their pre-Hispanic culture and beliefs to continue. They speak Igbok language and are known for dances

    CULTURAL COMMUNITIES IN VISAYAS

    The Ati are a Negrito ethnic group in the Visayas, the central portion of the Philippine
    archipelago. Their small numbers are principally concentrated in the islands
    of Boracay, Panay and Negros. They are genetically related to other Negrito ethnic
    groups in the Philippines such as the Aeta of Luzon, the Batak of Palawan, the Agta of
    the Sierra Madres, and the Mamanwa of Mindanao.

    The Ati are the central attraction in the Ati-atihan festival, a festival named in their
    honor. It is said that the festival is held to commemorate the first appearance of
    the Roman Catholic Church and the Spaniards in the province of Aklan. According to oral
    tradition, the Ati helped the Spaniards conquer the native Visayans and, as a reward, the
    tribe was given a statue of the Santo Niño.
    In the Dinagyang festival of Iloilo City, also on Panay, performers are also painted to look
    supposedly like Ati and are organized into "tribes", called "tribus", to perform dances
    with drums, as the Atis are supposed to have done when the Malay arrived and bought
    Panay from the Ati. Dinagyang is held to celebrate this purchase as well as the arrival in
    Iloilo of the Santo Niño statue. When the statue first arrived in 1967, a tribe from the
    Ati-atihan festival was invited to Iloilo to mark the occasion.

    The Tumandok also known as the Suludnon, Panay-Bukidnon, or Panayanon Sulud,
    are a culturally indigenous Visayan group of people who reside in the Capiz-
    Lambunao mountainous area and the Antique-Iloilo mountain area of Panay in
    the Visayan islands of the Philippines. They are one of the two only culturally indigenous
    group of Visayan language-speakers in the Western Visayas, along with the Iraynon-
    Bukidnon of Antique.
    Although they were once culturally related to the speakers of the Kinaray-a, Aklanon,
    and Hiligaynon languages, all of whom inhabit the lowlands of Panay, their isolation
    from Spanish rule resulted in the continuation of a pre-Hispanic culture and beliefs.
    They speak the Igbok language (also known as Ligbok or Sulod language), a member of
    the West Bisayan subdivision of the Bisayan languages within the Austronesian
    language family.
    The Sulud/Tumandok are known for their Binanog dance, which mimics the flight of
    the Philippine eagle, accompanied by an agung ensemble. Another dance of the same
    name is also performed by the Bukidnon Lumad of Mindanao, suggesting a cultural
    connection between the people of the Western Visayas and northern Mindanao in
    ancient times. Apart from this, they also practice the use of bamboo musical
    instruments, which they use to express themselves in traditional songs, dances,
    and epics. They are also known for their detailed embroidery, known as panubok as well
    as handmade bags, hats and other materials made up of abaka and other materials
    around them. The heritage of the panubok is celebrated in the Tinubkan fashion show
    in Iloilo City. The Sulud are also known for their traditional practices on the mysticism of
    the binukot and nabukot.
