What is the story behind the song Donald mCGillivray?
It is a fake Jacobite song written by James Hogg (The Ettrick Shepherd) and published in a book of fake Jacobite songs (Jacobite Relics) in about 1819. It was published to cash in on the wave of sentimentalism started by Sir Walter Scott's poems and novels. Read "The King's Jaunt" by John Prebble to get a good background to the period. It describes the visit by George IVth to Edinburgh, stage managed by Scott and the hysteria which resulted in a frenzy for all things Highland. The truth is both Scott and Hogg, who were well acquainted with each other, would have had no truck with Jacobitism if they had lived in that era. Both were Lowland Scots of a Presbyterian background. Many Lowlanders considered Highlanders as little more than quarrelsome cattle thieves and certainly did not rise up to follow Prince Charlie.
What is there less of at the top of a mountain?
Most mountains, the higher you go the colder it gets, the thinner air, less food and water sources, so its hard for any life to exist on the tops Much of the life forms on Earth cannot stand the dry, cold conditions in high altitudes. humans, for example, can't stay up there for long because of the decrease in oxygen. plus, there are no suitable grounds for agriculture in higher altitudes. Another reason would be there is much less UV protection. Acute Montain Sickness caused by hopoxia-a lack of oxygen in the blood) affects over half of lowlanders who spend more than a few hours above 3,500 metres (11,480 ft).
What is the history of manguangan tribe in the Philippines?
Mangyan is the collective name of eight ethnolinguistic groups— Iraya, Alangan, Tadyawan, Tau-Buid, Bangon, Buhid, Hanunoo, and Ratagnon —who inhabit the highland region of Mindoro. Mindoro is the Philippine archipelago’s seventh-largest island, measuring about 10,000 square kilometers. It lies at the northern end of the vast basin of the Sulu Sea, south of Batangas and mainland southern Luzon, and west of the Bicol region. Most parts of the island are mountainous. There are small stretches of flatlands, and the rest are coastal areas. These plains are home to the damuong, the Filipino lowlanders such as the Tagalog, Visayan, and Ilocano migrants. Another group, the Ratagnon, which can be found in a nearby territory of the Hanunoo (also Hanunuo) and are usually grouped with the Mangyan, are considered by anthropologists and linguists as settlers from the island of Cuyo. The etymology of the term “Mangyan” is unclear. It may have been formed by the prefix mang (“one from a certain place”) and the root word yan (“that place”). Therefore, “Mangyan” may mean “the people from that place.” Lowlanders use the word to refer to any indigenous group residing in Mindoro, including the Ratagnon. Nevertheless, for the indigenous peoples themselves, the word means “people.” They also use it to distinguish themselves from the “foreign” lowland settlers. For most outsiders, the term “Mangyan” has a derogatory connotation because they associate it with being “primitive,” “aggressive,” or “enslaved.” Worcester (1930, 591-592) wrote that the Mangyan were dirty and unsanitary, and “only slightly more developed than the Negritos.” Conklin (1947) did not like the term “Mangyan,” claiming that it was “confusing, had no scientific value and was a source of conflict.” At present, however, the different indigenous groups of Mindoro claim it as their collective name. The name of their island-wide alliance is HAGIBBAT Mangyan Mindoro, the first word being the acronym for the seven groups: Hanunoo, Alangan, Gubatnon, Iraya, Buhid, Bangon, Tadyawan. Formerly named Samahang Pantribo ng mga Mangyan (SPMM) (Association of Mangyan Groups), it is still called SPMM by some Mangyan.
