Manobo is the hispanicized spelling of the endonym Manuvu (also spelled Menuvu or Minuvu). Its etymology is unclear; in its current form, it means "person" or "people." It is believed that it is derived from the root word tuvu, which means "to grow"/"growth" (thus Man[t]uvu would be "[native]-grown" or "aboriginal").
The Manobo languages are a group of languages spoken in the Philippines. Their speakers are primarily located around Northern Mindanao , Central Mindanao (presently called Soccsksargen ) and Caraga regions where they are natively spoken.

Manobo – The world is on iron posts created by the god Makalindung who lives in the center with a python.
