Encountered in archival documents and historical accounts, the part of a building curiously known as tabique pampango is virtually unknown today.In general terms, tabique pampango refers to a thin wall of interwoven wooden or bamboo stakes and finished with a coating of lime plaster.Tabique is Spanish for any thin or partition wall.The descriptive pampango refers to the people of Pampanga, many of whom served in the colonial military.As we shall see, this type of construction was widely practiced throughout the Spanish colonial Philippines.The procedure for this type of wall, practiced by peoples around the world since ancient times, is the local version of what is referred to in architectural parlance as 'wattle and daub.' The earliest known reference to the technique dates from the early years of the 18th century.The earliest available mention of tabique pampango is from 1799.It was banned by the so-called Manila Earthquake Ordinances of 1880, though its construction continued elsewhere after that date
