crops3. By paying taxes to the datu in order to cultivate
a part of the land belonging to the ruler/datu. It is like amortization.

• Pieces of wood were sharpened before use, and so were coconut shells. Mortar and pestle were shaped so that they could be used for pounding.
• Fire was a great advancement in the Stone Age.
