(a) MANSAKA ("Inhabitants of the mountain clearings"). This name is
applied to those Mandaya who formerly dwelt far back in the mountains.
Many of this division have recently emigrated to the coast and are now
found at the north and east part of Davao Gulf.
(b) PAGSUPAN. The appellation by which the members of this tribe, living
near the Tagum and Hijo rivers, are known.
(c) MANGWANGA or MANGRANGAN ("Dwellers in the forests"). A name by which
are designated those Mandaya who live in the heavily forested mountains
skirting the coast.
(d) MANAGOSAN or MAGOSAN. The members of the tribe living on the
headwaters of the Agusan river bear this name.
(e) DIVAVAOAN. A division which inhabits a small district to the south
and west of Compostela. Very little is known of this people, but from
the information now at hand it seems that they should be classed as a
branch of the Mandaya.
