together in the boat of Sharif Kabungsuwan and came to Magindanao (which is Cotabato). There Kabungsuwan met Sarabanun, the sister of Tabunaway, and asked to marry her. Tabunaway consented and the sharif married Sarabanun, but she died before her child was born. After the death of his father Tabunaway became datu of Magindanao. Sitti Paramisúli, the mother of Tabunaway, had asked her son to bury her comb, after her death, underneath her window. This he did. The comb grew and become a large bamboo tree. As Mamalu was cutting the tree one day he found a lady in one of the bamboo joints which he had cut. The blow had reached her little finger and cut it slightly. He took the child to Tabunaway who told Mamalu to adopt her because he had no children. They called her Putri Tunina, because they thought their mother had come to life again. As she was a virgin and of age she was married to Sharif Kabungsuwan and bore three daughters. The first daughter was called Mamuranda, and married Pulwa, the datu of Bwayan. The second was called Milagandi, and married Malang-sa-Ingud, who is also a datu of Bwayan. The third daughter was called Putri Batula. Sambug, the son of Tabunaway, married and begot Dagansina.
