 partly converted to Christianity. (2) Another name for the Moros 

 who inhabit the islands lying between Basilan and Sulu.

 pare Samales (2). 



S'(i//icac'as.^SomQ authors speak of them as the aborigines of Basilan 

 pushed back into the interior b}- the Moros. According to Claudio

Sangley. — A name ])orne in early times by Chinese settled in the 

 Philippines. Going into disuse.

 until the setthMiient of the Spaniards had established couuuerce with 

 Acapulco, introducing Mexican silver, greatly coveted by the Celes- 

 tials. — Translator. ] 



Sangxiiles. — (1) Until most recent times by this name was understood 

 a people in the little-known southern part of the district of Davao 

 (Mindanao). The Jesuit missionaries have found no people bearing 

 this name; it seems, therefore, that Sanguiles was a collective title for 

 the Bilanes, Dulanganes, and Manobos, who occupied the most south- 

 ern part of ^Mindanao, the peninsula of the volcano Sanguil or Saragana. 

 (2) Moros Sanguiles means those Moros who dwell in the part of the 

 south coast of Mindanao (district of Davao) lying between the Punto 

 de Craan and the Punta Panguitan or Tinaka. They also appear to 

 have received their name from the volcano of Sanguil. 



Silipmies. — A heathen head-hunting people having its abode in the 

 province of Nueva Vizcaya (and comandancia Quiangan). It belongs 

 to the Ifugas linguistic family. [Consult A. B. Meyer, with A. Schad- 

 enberg, in Vol. VIII, folio series, Royal Ethnographic Museum in 

 Dresden, 1890.] 



Siihanox. — (Properly Subanon, "river people.") A heathen people
