Meaning Prior to year 100 to Year 1370, There is no muslim tribe in Mindanao Island, no islam faith in
the archipelago.. . The Maranao, Tausug, Maguindanao, Subanen, Kamayo and Mandaya tribes believes
the same God called Bathala the creator of the universe.. They also believe the sames gods, the moon,

- The farm capitals of subanen are Cagayan de oro, Iligan, Lanao del norte Pagadian and Sindangan as
major crops producing areas
- Gingoog, Camiguin and Basilan islands are the center of fishing for the Subanen tribe .
When China traded their goods to Subanen during year 7000, they are only practicing barter. Subanen
