Do Filipinos religious before the Chinese or spanish came?

Before the arrival of the Chinese and Spanish, Filipinos practiced indigenous animistic beliefs, worshipping a variety of deities and spirits associated with nature and their ancestors. These early religious practices were deeply intertwined with community life and rituals. While Chinese traders introduced elements of Buddhism and Confucianism, it was the Spanish colonization that brought Christianity, particularly Roman Catholicism, which significantly reshaped the religious landscape of the Philippines. Thus, Filipinos had their own spiritual systems long before external influences.
