Still remember my recent visit and the wonder I felt upon seeing this collection. Truly, Philippines was once a glorious society even before the arrival of the colonizers
@@vicparmi1939if you read the Pigafetta’s record he said, Rajah Humabon gave Magellan a gold jewelries that made by Rajah Humabon’s private jeweller. That’s one evidence that the pre-colonial filipinos know how to make jewelries, and there are lots of gold nugget in the rivers in philippines back then 😏
Get your facts straight. There is no evidence of that. Gold artifacts are found all over the country and there are no similar designs found in India. @@vicparmi1939
Thank you for presenting this. I hope these designs will be more visible in Philippine architecture and exhibited even through replica in different social settings such as resorts, hotels and special events for awareness and education 😊.
Truly a most outstanding collections with immense and invaluable historical value that no financial value can match. As many ancient pre-colonial maps have cited and indicated, the country is indeed labelled the Land of OPHIR( the Biblical-cited 'Land of Gold'), long before Magellan stepped into its shores and re-named it The Philippines. Visiting Ayala Museum just for this Gallery alone, is truly a most worthwhile experience of a lifetime indeed, as I have seen them with great awe and fascination, with my own naked eyes wide open.
I suppose pre-colonial times is much better than the colonial times and better even than today. Our ancestors were very wealthy. When Spaniards came our wealth vanished, the country became slave to King Philip and until now we are bearing the slave name Philippines. Our people then were stripped off of dignity and were called INDIO and FILIBUSTERO while King Philip's people became the rulers of our country and almost all common people, the Indios and Indias were deprived of education for almost 400 years. Uneducated Indio were named after King Philip "Filipino", a mark of King Philip's colony, the slaves. That's why Dr. Jose Rizal composed the novels "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo" so that new generations of the so called Filipinos will understand where they came from and who they were and how they were subdued, enslaved, stripped off of wealth and put their lives into misery. The Spaniards with the aid of a strong influence of their so called religion "Roman Catholicism" the culture and customs of the people were destroyed. Now, a new breed of Filipinos are born confused, jealous, divided, fearful to stand as a nation, corrupt leaders, no love to the country, traitors to their own fellow Filipinos. I just hope and pray that the true God of heaven and earth break these evil chains our colonial masters placed in our hands and feet. I just hope that many Filipinos realized what the colonials master did to our race. I just hope that we can still rise above these bad influences and create a new country that is totally free from the shackles of foreign powers. Dr. Jose Rizal wanted Filipinos of today to remember the miserable history of our country in the hands of the Spaniards and come for a real change: to be united as one to free the country from the 400 years slumber.
Yes sir dennis, meron ng napukaw na diwa kaya nauumpisahan na itong mabuksan at may kawan ng nagsasama sama para ba ginagamit ng Almighty Father para mabalik ang ating diwa, kamalayan kung sino talaga tayo, alam na alam namin at halos buo na sa amin ang kamalayan na yan, napakapayapa at yaman sana natin kung hindi tayo sinakop at inalipin ng mga banyagang kalaban ng maylikha sa atin kasama sa pinanggising sa amin ang kasulatan ni rizal, malaking bagay sya, i invuting you to watch OHC ophirian heritage conservatory sa you tube more and exact info sa hiatory natin, thanks and be blessed sir
But you should not forget that Rizal want the Philippines to become a province of Spain so that the native Filipinos become a citizen of Spain and not just from a far-flung “colony” of Spain
Bakit kaylangan sabihin na galing ito sa Pilipinas. Malamang ito ay traded lang dito sa pilipinas and not entirely na ginawa dito. Sana i accept natin ang facts. Ang gold ay galing sa ibang bansa hindi dito. Dito lang nahukay.
Thank you Ayala Museum for preserving our very own Philippine treasure.
Ayala preserve the things they destroyed

Now I know why my grandma and mom like their flashy jewelry! It’s in our collective and history. Wow!
Lots of cultural treasures are still out there.
Visiting this museum is ABSOLUTELY worth it. I cannot recommend it enough.

I'm proud to be a filipino
Thank you - this is great.
Sino nandito dahil sa subject na “Readings in the Philippine History”? HAHAHAH😂
Are there same museums in other Southeast Asian countries, showcasing their ancestral golds? Or ours more extensive?
The Queen of the South will Rise🤗The Land of Ophir🤫 Where King Solomon got its Gold🤗Columbus, Magellan, and Bush knew🤫
May bayad bang makapasok dito?
The gold of the gods amazing
The presentation is so good except for the background music that drowns the narration..
😮Imagine how many more gold artifacts we have if they were not taken by the colonizers.

The narrator seems to be speaking from another room.
It is called Ophir in the Bible, the Land of Gold!
Auphir gold is Auphirs the DNA speaks for itself. regardless of design etc. stop using embellished words
