A Reflection Paper on Gintong Pamana

The evidences that will prove that Filipinos have a rich culture in pre-colonial result are the gold Jewelries and their technology. Firstly, Gold is a precious metal that surpasses all ores in the world. It is the most costly to the point people search for it, fight for it, and even kill for it. But that wasnt the case in pre-colonial period. all classes?the nobles, freemen and the two types of slaves (lapping Mahayana and lapping salesgirl)?wore gold Jewelries.There are many uses of gold back then, hardly hey were Just an prettify on their bodies, utensils, decorations, orifice ornaments for the deceased when they laid to rest, and more. Lastly, their manual technology on how they molded the gold. In the video, eyesight the belts, figurines and the stunning over the shoulder halter weighing four kilos of pure gold made me buckle and deeply think. Just how on earth they made those ornaments? I thought. They made it manually and with the only military service of a crucible t o melt the gold and so they were able to produce works that are superior.The take in definitely challenged my assumptions. I assumed that the Filipinos have poor culture because they dont have the modern technology but I was completely wrong. The folks who inhabited the islands nearly a millennium ago were already so advanced In their craftsmanship which was also true at different points of our history in the ravishing textiles, baskets, embroideries, etc. Watching the video made me realize that I do not such luxurious material heritage In my house but I do have the heritage of intimacy and values.I already gained It at the eon I had my consciousness. I believe that I can preserve them by passing It down to future generations. At least for me, knowledge and values are the most main(prenominal) heritage because It teaches you moral lessons and It can lead you too better life. We Filipinos are always searching for our Identity. race are complaining that we are not pure or nativ es, uncivilized and messiest but at the time when we see the Surreal treasures, we realize that Is already the core, which Is who we are.
