Negrito balawit. Fig. 20. Wire used for shooting fish. Fig. 17. The same (profile). , Fig. 21. Rubber band with wire. Fig. 18. Decorations on arrow shaft. instead of a bow, the Pygmies use a rubber band doubled up and knotted in the middle: the fork of the arrow is pressed against one end, where the rubber band is protected by cotton thread wound tightly around it, and kept in place with one hand; the other hand is placed at the knot, where it causes the rubber band to stretch and give the required impetus to the arrow (cf. figs, 19—21). Both at Baler and at Casiguran, Negrito fishermen actually make use of goggles, specially made for the purpose and imported from outside: in this way they are able to keep sight of the fish while diving. In both places, and also in the province of Rizal, I met many Pygmies who wore a string around the neck. At first I thought we had to do with some kind of superstitious practice, but when I ventured to unravel one of these strings, I found it to end in a small piece of iron, a kind of fishhook in the shape of a barbed arrowhead. When going to fish, the Negrito sticks this hook in a cane of bamboo grass around which he winds the string; then taking hold of this cane, he pierces the fish directly by hand without shooting. In the district of Casiguran, they also use a round casting net provided with lead sinkers all around the rim, but without the line which all Malays attach to the center in order to draw it.
