BuwayaThe Buwaya is a reptilian creature that abducts humans and places it inside the big box on its back.
It appears as a crocodile with a big box-like item on its back. The Buwaya abducts its victims in the water and places them inside the box on its back where they are being kept as it went back to its cave in the deep water. Ancient Filipinos are afraid of it that they throw food or whatever part of the goods they are transporting in their boat whenever they come across it. Village chieftains are said to have even punished anyone who inflicts harm or kills it. |
