Traditional Weaponry in Pangasinan

Reading Felipe Quintos' "Sipi Awaray Gelew diad Pilipinas (Revolucion Filipina)" or "Tala ng Kasaysayan ng Pag-aalsa sa Pilipinas: Revolucion Filipina" opened my eyes to traditional weaponry used in Pangasinan at the turn of the century.

Talibong - a long curved dagger used as bladed weapon

Barang - local itak or bolo

Lantaka - native cannon

Kanyon - cannon

Fusil - firearm
