                    [Summary] => Ancient skulls bearing a single eyeball socket found in limestone caves have baffled tribal folk in the hinterlands of Bohol, Bukidnon and Agusan, reports said.


The existence of the skulls, which resemble those of the cyclops, a race of giants in Greek mythology with a single eye in the middle of the forehead, has triggered speculations that one-eyed ancient settlers once roamed the country’s southern islands.


The strange skulls were reportedly found in limestone caves in the hinterlands of Bohol, at Mt. Palaupau in Sumilao, Bukidnon, and in some parts of Agusan.

Archeologist Rey Santiago said he personally unearthed the 3,000-year-old skull of the ancient tamaraw during a recent excavation.


"This could be the ancestor of the tamaraw or even the native carabao in the country," he said.
