What is the legend of the 10 Bornean datus?
The legend says that in the 13th century, 10 datus or chieftains from Borneo left their land together with their families and friends to escape the cruelty and injustice of Sultan Makatunaw, the ruler of Borneo. The ten datus were: Datu Puti (the leader), Datu Bangkaya, Datu Dumalugdog, Datu Sumakwel, Datu Lubay, Datu Paiburong, Datu Dumangsil, Datu Balensusa, Datu Paduhinog and Datu Dumangsol. They sailed on their balangays (vintas or boats) without knowing where to go. Finally they reached Panay Island. They bought the island from the chieftain of the Atis or Aetas who were then occupying the island. The chieftain's name was Marikudo and his wife was Maniwantiwan. Three of the datus decided not to settle in Panay but to sail northward. The three were: Datu Puti, Datu Balensusa and Datu Dumangsil. They settled in some parts of Luzon. When Sultan Makatunaw was no longer in power, Datu Puti returned to Borneo. The seven datus who stayed in Panay divided the island into three areas: Hamtik (now Antique), Irong-Irong (now Iloilo), and Aklan (now Aklan and Capiz). Hamtik was under Datu Sumakwel, Irong-Irong was under Datu Paiburong, and Aklan was under Datu Balangkaya.
What were the reasons why our forefathers formed the confederation of barangays?
the federation of the barangays during the pre-Spanish period was evident and one of the oldest confederations was the "Confederatio of Madya-as" which was established by Bornean datus. It was composed of the settlements of Hantik (Antique) Aklan and Irong-Irong (Iloilo) and was under the overall rule of datu of ancient Panay. The rulers of bigger barangays assumed thev title of rajah or lakan. Perhaps the primary reasons why early barangays were formed was because of mutual protection against enemies and subsequent marriage of the lakambini (princess) and the lakan (prince) of different barangays which eventually led to the unification of some barangays. Barangays relations were established because of intermarriage of persons in one barangay to other barangays. Friendship with each other was usually sealed by the traditional ceremony, the blood compact, called sandugo (one blood) and anchored on mutual respect and alliance. The participating parties in the compact drew blood from their arms and mixed the blood with wine and drank from the same cup.
