The first Mass in the Philippines, led by Ferdinand Magellan's chaplain, was believed to have taken place on Easter Sunday, March 31, 1521, in Limasawa, now part of Southern Leyte province. This event marked the introduction of Christianity in the country.
Carlo Amoretti played a crucial role in identifying Limasawa as the historic Mazaua, a waystation of Magellan's Armada, by analyzing historical accounts and geographical descriptions from the expedition. He argued that Limasawa matched the descriptions of Mazaua's location, particularly its proximity to the mouth of a river and its suitability for harboring ships. Amoretti's proof relied on cross-referencing Magellan's own logs and accounts from other explorers, emphasizing the island's characteristics that aligned with those of Mazaua. His work helped solidify Limasawa's significance in the history of early European exploration in the Philippines.
