    Extractions: Don Carlos told Magellan that not all chieftains obeyed him, because they said they were as good men as he. So Magellan convoked all the chiefs and told them that unless they would obey Don Carlos as their king, he would have them killed and give all their possessions to the King. On the 26th of April Rajah Zula, one of the chiefs of Mactan send 2 goats as present to Magellan, apologizing that he could not give more since Lapulapu the other chief refused to obey the King of Spain. Rajah Zula nevertheless assured Magellan that with European reinforcements he would be able to subdue his rival. However, instead of sending reinforcements, Magellan without knowing the terrain volunteered to fight Lapulapu. After Magellan's defeat, the Cebuanos lose heart and repudiated their alliance killing the remaining 20 Europeans and burning their ship the Concepcion. Thus, most of them returned to their idols. They burried on the ground both the Cross and Our Lady's statue. But they keep with them the Santo Niño whom they revered as the "Bathala", the Supreme God. They invoke Him in time of drought, by giving a ritual bath to the Santo Niño in the seashore. In the time of epidemy, they made a procession around the village with this statue. Not everything therefore is lost in this first effort to Christianize the country. These miracles made them know that this Statue represents the one and true God.

    Extractions: M embers of the Philippine History Group of Los Angeles (PHGLA) write articles on all topics of Philippine history and culture. PHGLA has no political stand on historical matters. We believe that a good historian must not be an advocate for an ideology and that an advocate for a cause, no matter how noble, cannot be a good historian. Nevertheless, each member of PHGLA has his own personal point of view that other members respect. Our member articles are under the heading, "Member Articles." PHGLA seeks outstanding articles from nonmembers and publishes them here under "Guest Articles." PHGLA welcomes opinions that most participating members may not agree with and provides a forum for them to be heard. Their opinions are published in these pages under "Opposing Views." Member Articles "The Ati-Atihan Festival" by Reuben Domingo. This quasi-religious spectacle has elements of both the sacred and the profane. It is similar to the Mardi Gras in New Orleans and the Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro but is not celebrated during the Holy Week and comes from a completely different origin. The author traces one possible historical origin of this boisterous and raucous celebration. Warning: This page contains several large graphics files which may slow down your download.

33. Philippine History: June 12 As Flag And Anthem Day?
    Filipino historians dispute June 12 as independence day, the design of the national flag based on the Spanish martial law proclamation and other controversial issues. By Aurelio C. Reyes.  
    http://www.tribo.org/history/flagday.html
    
    Extractions: by Ed Aurelio C. Reyes Kampanya para sa Kamalayan sa Kasaysayan Government insistence on marking June 12 as independence day and as the establishment day for the first republic in this continent has run into serious controversy, nay debate, with historians. The historians are saying that the June 12 declaration in Kawit, Cavite, was one of a protectorate (or "independence" that was "under the protection of the mighty and humane North American nation"). And the government that was formed was a dictatorial government , which, upon the advice of Apolonario Mabini, was changed later into a revolutionary government. It was only in September 1898 that a constituent assembly (called "Malolos Congress") was converned, and it was in January of the following year that upon the resultant Constitution hammered out by that assembly the first Philippine Republic (also called "Malolos Republic") was inaugurated. KAMALAYSAYAN (Kampanya para sa Kamalayan sa Kasaysayan) has chosen to take side of historicity or historical accuracy. If we are to awaken in our contrymen an interest in our history, why feed them myths? June 12 as Independence Day is a myth. It has always been. Earlier, we had another myth: that of celebrating Independence on the fourth of July. In 1962, President Diosdado Macapagal moved Independence Day from one false date to another. But let me not be quoted as saying June 12, 1898 is not at all a significant date in the history of our nation, the nation that was born two years before at the outbreak of the Philippine Revolution in August 1896.
