Religion

Tontemboan Bible, by M. Adriani-Gunning and J. Regar, published in 1907 by Firma P.W.M Trap, Leiden, Holland.At 95% of the population, the Minahasa Regency has one of highest proportions of Christianity in Indonesia. It has the highest density of church buildings in Indonesia, with approximately one church for every 100m road.[citation needed] This is due to a successful missionary campaign by European Christians in Northern Sulawesi.

In 1907, Firma P.W.M Trap, Leiden, Holland published a bible in the Tontemboan language, a language of Minahasa. It was edited by M. Adriani-Gunning and J. Regar.


[edit] Cuisine
Minahasan cuisine is very spicy, and can feature ingredients not typically found in other parts of Indonesia. For example, dog (RW, short for rintek wuuk, or "fine hair" in Tontemboan), cat (tusuk, also known as eveready because of the cat logo used by the battery), forest rat, and fruit bat (paniki) are commonly eaten. The provincial capital Manado is often referred to as Kota Tinutuan, in reference to a popular local dish: a rice porridge made with corn, smoked fish, greens, and chilies. Also known as Bubur Manado, tinutuan is supposed to improve health and vitality.


[edit] Dance
Kabasaran is the fierce and famous Minahasan wardance which reminds of the old Minahasa warrior societies. The dancers wear red garments which in the old times was a color exclusive for the accomplished headhunter. This dance is similar to the Moluccan Cakalele wardance.[12]


[edit] Languages
In the Minahasa, 5 distinct languages are spoken: Tonsawang, Tontemboan, Toulour, Tonsea and Toumbulu. In 1996, the Summer Institute of Linguistics in Dallas, published the North Sulawesi Language Survey by Scott Merrifield and Martinus Salea. It gives an overview of the classification and distribution of the languages, based on a detailed study of the phonology and vocabulary.

Influences of Portuguese and Spanish can be found in the Indonesian dialect of the Minahasa (Manado Malay or Minahasa Malay):

Chair in Indonesian is kursi, in the Minahasa its called kadira (cadera - Spanish word for hip; cadeira - Portuguese word for chair).

Horse in Indonesian is kuda, a word of Sanscrit origin. In the town of Tomohon, a horse is called kafalio (caballo - Spanish, cavalho - Portuguese).

I looked up Minahasa on youtube and found this cool song among many others. I like their language. It doesn't really sound Filipino though, it sounds more Polynesian. But if you look at the words, they look like they're from a Filipino language.

Nice find!

I thought the languagew of the people from northern Sulawesi is more close to Malay rather than Filipino languages

[Graham_Cracker07]

^ Yeah, i like the song. The words don't sound Filipino, but the beat & the way the ppl are dancing reminds me of Filipinos, haha.

well,manados(minahasa) don't accept their being filipino,even when their philippine characteristics is obvious.

bajaws are not true filipinos.

[Jc2]

Are we more related to Northern Sulawesi people than Borneans?

north sulawesi are more filipino than bajaws,the scientist have proven that bajws are not filipino but north sulawesi are,the spanish split us from them,it's they fault,filipinos before spanish were living in anarchy but more peaceful i think.

Conclusion
We show that, in contrast to the Taiwan homeland hypothesis, the Island Southeast Asians do not have a Taiwan origin based on their paternal lineages. Furthermore, we show that both Taiwan aborigines and Indonesians likely derived from the Daic populations based on their paternal lineages. These two populations seem to have evolved independently of each other. Our results indicate that a super-phylum, which includes Taiwan aborigines, Daic, and Malayo-Polynesians, is genetically educible.

While there has not yet been a genetic study of great statistical significance about the ancestry of the various Austronesian Philippine ethnic groups, there have been some studies, based upon very small sample (statistics) sample s of the population, which provide clues as to their origins.

For example, a Stanford University study conducted during 2001 revealed that Y-chromosome haplogroup O3 (Y-DNA) Haplogroup O3 -M122 (labeled as "Haplogroup L" in this study) predominates among Filipino males. This particular haplogroup is also predominant among Chinese people Chinese and Koreans Korean males. Another haplogroup, haplogroup O1 (Y-DNA) Haplogroup O1a -M119 (labeled as "Haplogroup H" in this study), is also found among Filipinos. The rates of Haplogroup O1a are highest among the Taiwanese Aborigines . Overall, the genetic frequencies found among Filipinos points to the Ami people Ami tribe of Taiwan as their nearest genetic relative.

A 2002 China Medical University (ROC) China Medical University study indicated that certain Filipinos shared a particular gene marker that is also found among Taiwanese aborigines and Indonesians.

Furthermore, a 2003 University of the Philippines study based on 50 participants each from the islands of Luzon and Cebu provided some insight into the various places of origin of early Filipinos; some rare genetic markers were found that are shared by people from parts of Asia.
