Answer:
SORSOGON, Sorsogon (ANFI) – From a nearby rain forest, a man in hairy animal clothing emerges carrying a wild boar on his shoulder while a woman, apparently his wife, builds a fire in the yard. She keeps an eye on her two naked frolicking small boys.
Their cogon house, almost similar in shape to the snow house of the Eskimos has only one opening, a door showing the damp, dark interior of the dwelling. The house has no windows.
This was what people saw in their minds when reports came out that artifacts about 3,000 years old, were discovered in a limestone cave in barrio Bato Bacon, Sorsogon, sometime ago.They surmised that the first cave man walked in Bacon thousands of years ago.
The artifacts which consisted of burial jars with human bones intact, stone implements and drinking cups and used by the early cave dwellers were found by a team of archeologists headed by Dr. Robert Fox in 1956.
The description of the first cavemen in Europe: farmers cultivating green crops and using pottery and other stone implements is not much different from the description of the first ancient man in Bicol.
The oldest relics of man were found in 1977 by Mrs. Mary Leakey, a British lady archeologist, beneath the volcanic ashes at Latolil in Tanzania, Africa. The relics consisted of some teeth and jawbone of an adult, about 3,700 years ago.
Absalon Empleo, an investigator of the Commission on Human Rights in Sorsogon, Sorsogon, who is making a research on the history of the town said that another ancient burial site which yielded 2,000-years-old artifacts was discovered in San Juan, Bacon, Sorsogon.
The artifacts now at the National Museum in Manila will be sent back to Bacon when the town has finished building a museum for cultural treasures.
