Hi all!

I have some students doing a project on mythology.  They have to find myths
from cultures other than Greek or Roman.  Several students are doing the
Philippines.  However, we ran into a problem with searching web sites.  We
have tried Philippino myths, Philippino mythology.  However, we get long
lists of obviously inappropriate sites.

To avoid making these students wade through this kind of list, do you have
any sites, or suggestions for making the search work without the
inappropriate listings.

 (As a side note, what a disservice to the Philippines - to get these kinds
of sites when students use the search term.  Does anyone have a problem
with a filter taking out all sites with the name of this country in the
title?  I am not in favor of filters but wish the Philippines could take
legal action or something.
