Lore

Sidapa is the god of death in Visayan (Philippine) mythology, a tall dark figure who measures life spans on a sacred tree, cutting branches to determine when souls depart. In some tales, he is consort to the moon. Sidapa embodies the inevitability of death and the orderly transition of life. He represents fate, finality, and the sacred cycle of existence in indigenous Philippine tradition.
