Angono-Binangonan Petroglyphs
The oldest known work of art in the Philippines: 127 human and animal figures engraved into a rock wall on the boundary of Angono and Binangonan, Rizal province, probably during the Late Neolithic. The stylized figures - including frogs and lizards - are thought to be linked to healing rituals and sympathetic magic.
