Every place has its own stories of the old past civilazations and aside of that a great civilizations of Native people particularly their Culture, Trades and way of living. For today's travel blog of mine, I will take you to the nature place of Pintoy's coconut farm. This place is located at Zone 23 Barangay Poblacion Manticao and it is near at the river that is why agricultural plants is very perfect in here. This site is also near at the Abandoned native areas of Sitio Linangga in fact according to elders, Pintoy is the place were native people doing their trade to other tribe living in other parts of the Mountain.

Centuries has past when this area was a trading place and they sell their goods and products here. According to the historians, this was once an open field and they decided to make this place a market site so other tribal people can easily went here. Allow me to share the exact stories behind in this areas and to make you a tour as well.

Pintoy is located near at the Manticao river, back in the old civilizations, this river was very deep and most of the Native people used a simple boat made of woods to catched fish or hauling their goods on the other side of the place. This areas here was completely submerged by fresh water and the only thing they can do to reached the Market place is to built wooden boats. Each side of the place has a tall cliff and they can't easily get off the boat so as the historians says, they built a simple ducking areas somewhere in this place that time.

For centuries has past, the river keeps filling tons of sands and stones everytime when there is a great flood but the tall cliff still at the place. Pintoy site is not easily reached and it needs to climbed up some parts of the cliff before reaching the place. The cliff contains a layer of sands, stones and soil and it indicates the mark line of the water from the river.

Big trees are grows everywhere particularly at the cliff. It keeps the place very relaxing and cool because of its shade. Most of the trees can be seen here are already old and most of the can be seen and found here are Molave, Acacia and Talisay trees. Molave is a well known hardest native plant here in fact native people cut the trees by burning the trunk so the trees will cut down.

Native people loves to worship Gods and according to the historians, this big and old tree was once a worshipped areas of Native people. It is located near at the river and historians recovered some artifacts here near at the tree just like broken pots, vases and Jars made of clay. Lots of wild animals like birds can also seen and heard here.

This is Pintoy Site, the place of Native people's trading areas. This was once an open field and there was no any coconut trees grows here back in the old days. Only few big trees can be seen that time and aside of that, wild grass was not grown here and only sandy soil cna be seen and found. This thicked wild grass area was once a trading site were some simple wooden structure built here.

This big trees is already here that time and it still grows very wide until now. But the story behind in this areas was this site served as an open field and the goods they trade will be put here. There was once a big light structure built here but all of it are completely vanished as the Native people gone.
