  Teachers ask DepEd to include Maitum jars in History books
MAITUM, Sarangani -- This town plays a very important role in determining the prehistory not only of Mindanao and the Philippines but also of Southeast Asia.
The questions cannot be answered as yet, given the constraints faced by the National Museum team, among them, security, funding, time constraints, absence of laboratory analysis, and the fact that before Dizon's team came, the cave had been "severely disturbed" because a Japanese national financed a digging there in search of gold bars.
A link could have been found within Maitum itself, in the cave in Sitio Linao which Dizon and his team visited on Wednesday and Thursday last week but the cave has been "heavily disturbed" by treasure diggers.

  Sun.Star General Santos - Binuyugan 2005: Maitum revisited
Maitum, located 101 kilometers southwest of General Santos City and populated by just a little over 35,000 residents mostly living along the coastal line, is a largely agricultural land predominantly inhabited by migrants from the Ilocos region.
Maitum's largely intact watershed and forest areas are also havens for botanists who are amazed at the diverse flora and fauna still existing side by side with residents in the area.
Maitum is now famous for its dried fish (bangsi) and bagoong that have earned considerable income for its residents.

 Newsworthy Maitum : Mindanao
One exception to Sarangani’s peaceful election climate was the municipality of Maitum, which lies on the province’s far Western frontier.
The good people of Maitum responded by converging on the polls in righteous anger, voting a new mayor and a new slate of councilors, nearly all of whom were endorsed by Governor Migs.
But, to strategize then murder someone in front of his family (true in both of the instances noted here), simply to remove him from your path to hell, is an unfathomable concept that demands something far greater than punishment, and I’m confident God has plenty of punitive measures He can level against such a person.
