Marinduque: "VIVA MARINDUQUE" as vehicle for cultural preservation

"VIVA MARINDUQUE"

It wasn't just the honorable members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan ng Marinduque who stepped forward to convey their positive response to the conduct of the festivities. The Sangguniang Bayan of Gasan also conveyed their full appreciation. 

Among others, the resolution stated that "Viva Marinduque is truly reflective of the richness of Marinduque's beliefs, customs and traditions, and can also be an effective vehicle in the preservation of these cultures."

My Marinduque: Culturally Significant Marinduque

Culturally Significant Marinduque

Old Marinduque

It must be stressed that the beginnings of archaeology in the Philippines began right here in our now-troubled island. Prior to 1900, only one important archaeological investigation had been carried out in the country: Alfred Marche’s exploration of Marinduque from April to July 1881. While many other accidental finds have been recorded from time to time, and a few burial caves and sites had been casually explored by European or local scientists, no really systematic work had been done elsewhere prior to that except for the efforts of Marche. After his, the next important work was by Dr. Carl Gunthe in the Central Visayan Islands in 1922.(Beyer)
