The Blaan people,[1] alternatively spelled as "B'laan",[2] are one of the indigenous peoples of Southern
Mindanao in the Philippines. Their name could have derived from "bla" meaning "opponent" and the suffix
"an" meaning "people". Other terms used to refer to this group are Blaan, Bira-an, Baraan, Vilanes, and
Bilanes. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaan_people)
