ANCIENT FILIPINO WRITING

• A Philippine Leaf by Hector Santos. The first web site about the baybayin on the internet. Hector Santos is probably the most knowledgeable person in this field. His web site also covers the Laguna Copperplate Inscription of 900 C.E. and many other areas of ancient Philippine history.

• Ating Baybayin - Our Filipino Script by Victor Quimson. A really clever site with Victor's own Baybayin Online Translator. You just type in a word and the programme will transcribe and display the word in either the original baybayin or the modified Spanish baybayin. Incidentally, my Tagalog Stylized font is used throughout Victor's site. 

• Urduja.com by Mary Ann Ubaldo, sells beautiful custom made Baybayin jewellery on-line.

• Alibata by Victor Ganata. The information in these pages is based on a paper written on May 8, 1998 by Victor Ganata for Professor Gary Holland at the University of California at Berkeley. It was subsequently revised and rewritten as HTML on April 11, 1999. There are also some free download-able baybayin fonts and an on-line "transliterator". 

• Ancient Philippine Scripts by Dr. Carl Rubino, a linguist and author of the best new Tagalog and Ilokano dictionaries. Here the baybayin is viewed from an Ilokano's point of view. 

• Alibata at Pandesal by Terrio Echavez. A Bisayan version of the baybayin is available for download as a TrueType font. 

• Baybayin Transcriptions by Paul Morrow. Examples of 16th and 17th century baybayin documents from the three major language groups of the Philippines are transcribed into the modern alphabet. 

• Down Load Baybayin Fonts Free! by Paul Morrow. Four baybayin typefaces available in TrueType format for both IBM and Macintosh computers and in PostScript Type 1 format. They are all free.
