“Why the Sea is Salty”
Narrated by José M. Paredes of Bangued, Ilocos Sur.
He heard the story from a farmer. A few years after the creation of the world there lived a tall giant
by the name of Ang-ngalo. Ang-ngalo was a wanderer, and a lover of work. He lived in the
mountains, where he dug many caves. One bright morning, while Ang-ngalo was climbing to his
loftiest cave, he spied across the ocean. The ocean at the time was pure, its water being the
accumulated tears of a disappointed goddess - a beautiful maid. She beckoned to him, and waved
her black handkerchief; so, Ang-ngalo waded across to her through the water. This beautiful maid
was Signet, the goddess of the dark. She said to Ang-ngalo, "I am tired of my dark palace in heaven.
You are a great builder. What I want you to do for me is to erect a great mansion on this spot. This
mansion must be built of bricks as white as snow." Ang-ngalo could not find any bricks as white as
snow; the only white thing there then was salt. So, he went for help to
Asin, the ruler of the Kingdom of Salt. Asin gave him pure bricks of salt, as white as snow. Then, Ang-
ngalo built hundreds of bamboo bridges across the ocean. Millions of men were employed day and
night transporting the white bricks from one side of the ocean to the other. One day, while the men
were busy carrying the salt bricks across the bridges, big waves destroyed them. The brick- carriers
were buried in deep bosom. In time, the salt dissolved, and today the sea is salty.
