Colorized Young Bagobo Warrior of Southern Philippines c1920s

This is a vintage portrait of a young Bagobo warrior of Southern Philippines taken in early part of the 20th century.  Not much else is known.  There are just too few online vintage photos of Philippine ethnic groups good enough to colorize. Stumbled on this one from a foreign Pinterest page.
