In ancient Philippines, maharlika were the nobility or ruling class, datu were village chiefs or leaders, timawa were free commoners who owned their land but paid allegiance to the datu, and alipin were slaves or serfs who served the higher classes. These social classes played a significant role in the societal structure of pre-colonial Philippine communities.
