MABINI; from Apolinario Mabini

Filipino nationalist and theorist of the Philippine revolution against Spanish colonial rule. Born into a peasant family in Batangas, Luzon Island, Mabini worked as a teacher before graduating in law from the University of Santo Tomás in 1894. He practiced briefly as a lawyer before joining the nationalist movement, led by Emilio Aguinaldo, in 1896. In the same year he was crippled by poliomyelitis, which may have saved him from execution by the Spanish, who arrested him that year. Mabini became the “brains of the revolution.” His hope was, when the Spanish-American War broke out in 1898, the United States would help secure independence for the Philippines from Spanish rule. He cautioned Aguinaldo against making a hasty declaration of independence, although this advice was ignored and the declaration was made in June 1898. Inspired by the French and American revolutions, Mabini drafted a democratic constitution for the Philippines. His ideas were not, however, incorporated in the constitution adopted at Malolos in 1898. Mabini’s intention of giving strong powers to the executive was rejected by the wealthier supporters of independence. Nor were his ideas on the separation of church and state acceptable. Mabini’s hopes of abolishing lotteries, liquor, cock-fighting pits, and capital punishment (except for military insubordination) were also doomed.

Daghang baryo sa Bohol nagsugod sa syllable nga "Ca-" or "Can-", to mean "belonging to", like Candavid, Can-omay, Canmaag, Cantakoy, etc.  Ang "Can-" mahimong "Cam- " kon ang sunod nga syllable magsugod sa letter "p" or "b", like Cambinocot, Campatud, Cambaquiz, etc.

Tampo pod ko usa. Catigbian from the word "Katigbi" which means in English "cattails" as in Kenny Rankin's "Pussywillow Cattails." Sa una daghan ug katigbi duol sa mga basak ug sapa, pero karon wa na kay makit-an. Deri hinoon sa akong nabutangan daghan ug katigbi... lami himoong su (torch) kaso mahal lang gas ron ahihihi.  ;D

valencia

named after the port city Valencia, Spain. it was named so because the founding fathers of our town were from that side of the Kingdom.

(FYI: the founding fathers of Valencia City, Bukidnon (ahem!) were from Valencia, Bohol. they named it valencia in honor of our beloved town)

"Ca-", "Cang-" and "Cam" also mean "belonging to". For example, Cambintoy, which means the place belongs to Bintoy or where Bintoy lives.

The cattail plant (Scientific name: Typha latifolia) is not "katigbi" because it does not produce a beadlike hard seednut but a clump of small fruits developing from a dense cylindrical spike of flowers. Cattails are marsh-loving plants and they have flat leaves that are used in making rush mats, chair seats, handcrafted bags, etc. "Katigbi" (Scientific name: Coix lacryma-jobi) grow on dry land and have much shorter leaves. Its seed is already polished and has a hole through it.

Very good description of both plants and distinction between the two. But old folks back in Catigbian talk about this "katigbi" (cattails) which grows on watery "sapa" and "tributaries" of basak, as I mentioned earlier (see this image http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=TYLA  ) rather than this Coix lacryma-jobi that you're talking about. Not only that, it was taught to us by our teacher in a "show and tell" (amo paman ganing gipasiga morag "su" (fire torch) when we were Grade 1 or 2, unless she taught us wrong or the Catigbian people don't know what in the world they're talking about. You must be talking about something else... or you must be really a plant expert who could help Catigbianons clear their wrong perception all along, hahaha. But thanks for the observation.

Di paman hi tek sa una, ilang lines of communication tawon kay singgit-singgit ra. Katong mga nilahos sa Kalawan, mo syagit na lang intawon sa mga tuas Manga... dia mis "kalawan" pero tungod sa daghang hills (around Tiptip which really looks more like a PIT (tip na binale) kay daghan lawom nga buho or bottom pit of the hills, ma toy mo cause sa echo... mao ang dating didto sa Mangang dako duol sa pier, "kabawan" na intawon.

I had quite a few subjects in Botany, Plant Breeding and Weed Science while I was in college, that is why long time ago nakahibalo na ko kon unsay cattails ug unsay katigbi, and they are not one and the same plant species. You can surf the net for "cattails" (ikog sa iring) and "Job's tears" (katigbi) and you will know the big difference between the two plants. Sorry, but your teachers were wrong. Ang katigbi mao nang gahi kaayo og bunga, himoong rosaryohan sa mga katigulangan kay morag beads ug dali ra tuhogon. Chic, if you are from Catigbian, please spread the correct information because I know most Catigbianons haven't even seen the plant and don't know its English name.

You still haven't given the name of Cattails in bisaya but ikog sa iring. Is there such a plant? And you also said people in Catigbian might not have even seen this plant (?). Or is it the real Katigbi (according to your description). How could that be? Pasabta ra ko ana, hahaha. Cattails (the image I sent) in Catigbian are abundant during the days of old and that's what they call Katigbi as they do now. Like I said it's folk's myth where I learned it from as well as from our teachers. It still is on their website. I think it should be you who should do the correcting ( but why now?) ... I'm busy teaching somewhere else hahaha!

Great question. I'm glad you asked. Been asking the same for a long time now.

I'm a Manileno by birth; Balilihanon, Jagnaanon and Ilonggo (Iloilo) by blood affinity, Catigbianon by choice (and pride); Tagbilaranon in reality (where I really grew up) and an Orleanian (by latest choice) the rest of the way.  "Who am I?" (from Jackie Chan movie).

Pero para nako ang kina lamiang pangan ug lungsod is... hmmmm... galibog... I guess, in my estimation are: (1) tagbilaran  (2) catigbian (3) cogon

No wonder my preferred names in UTube, etc. are: tagubilaan, tagbilaranbaun, cattailsville and chicogon (google-lable all!)

Katigbi is Job's tears. Pangutana sa mga tigulang kon unsang tanuma ang ilang himoong rosaryohan kaniadto. Moingon gyud silag katigbi, and they are correct. Surf the net and compare the two plants and you will know the difference between the two plants. I happened to study both plants in my Weed Science and Plant Classification subjects, both their botany and economic significance, while I was in college.

Sigi lang, one of these days, I will tell Bertsal about the real "katigbi". I have relayed the info to one of Catigbian's SB members ug nalipay siya kay wala man kuno siya makahibalo sa ininglis sa "katigbi".  Pareha ra ni sa case sa lola sa akong brother in law who insists that  the spongy "ambalang" or "amba'ang" is called "gusu" (Euchema) in her native province (not Bohol).

Good job KP. What you did is great. Am glad you did it... that is, did more research online. Hope Catigbianons will get to learn the difference between the two plants so more urban legends are declassified or demythologized (did I say it right?). Bohol is full of myths because of "hongihongs" and hearsays, and the Bol-anon's easy disposition to "istorya sa ilawom sa dagat," "ingcanto" and/or "ghost stories." They should have done this a long time ago but didn't. I'm in favor of what you did, but that doesn't change the fact  that weed "katigbi" - for now - circles around the image of cattails as perpetuated by this so-called urban myth. Am glad for the info but I've to reiterate also the fact that I'm here only to add my one-cent to the thread: origin of your town, baryo or sitio, (not study the plant itself - I wish I have more time for that) Catigbian for Katigbi, whether it's the right plant or not, hehehe. I'm sure you're efforts are appreciated. Hope you do something about what you know!!! Somebody should write a book on urband legends or teach them in schools!!!

Nobody's insisting that the two plants are one and the same. That was never the issue. The sites alone can attest to that. The problem resides in the fact that many old folks have or had wrong perception of what katigbi or cattails are. Maybe, too, there are who know the real score. But whether they really know or not, it's anybody's guess. Simple as that. The myths surrounding Dagohoy, Salazar of Ubujan, Datu Sikatuna or which church is older Baclayon or Loboc, or whether Katigbi is job's tears or cattails, etc. goes all the way back when tradition were handed down mostly by way of mouth and hardly any literature (feathers or stone?). If nobody will write them down, we could be on the brink of losing some or all of these wonderful stuff/tradition our children's children could benefit from 1,000 or more years from now. Human beings have only short-term memory, lifetime at best. Of course, we realize we're still ways to go as far as "being" truly cultural or "evolving" into" being cultural. Maybe "enjoying" this so-called cultural rainaissance happening in Bohol lately is what we really are for now. At this stage in time, it looks like we're still in sight-seeing, tourism and economic development aspects more than anything else.

Fortunately, in my hometown, a center is actively pursuing research and training on culture, heritage and the arts. Its staff are currently conducting cultural and heritage mapping in every barangay to gather information on, among others, local myths, legends, folkways and beliefs. Someday, they will rewrite the town's history and determine what truly is our cultural identity.

I hope other towns will follow suit; they just can't wait for the national and provincial govts to lead the initiative. Am glad to hear there are some who's taking a pro-active role in writing the history of their own area because it's very crucial for today and tomorrow. I like what I'm hearing many towns are doing these days but I hope they go past sightseeing and economic development stuff... historical archives or writing a book about a town maybe!

It was said, that few strong men of Dihay, the headman who owned the vast land of Candijay crossed the strait of fish. They found the island rich with sea resources that the fish were caught with their bare hands right at the seashore. So, they called island “Masayon”. Some of these men returned with their families to live Masayon. However, not one of them trotted at the nearby island at the mouth of Masayon because bandits and pirates dropped there any moment. Words were passed too, the Lumislis, a long-legged giant visits the islands anytime to devour migratory birds. So, they named the island Lumislis, Katiil and Kalanggaman respectively after the legendary giant.

 

These fisherfolks in the island distributed the habitat of a big fish living at a point called Tongkaob. When angry, it opened its big mouth, splashed its tail ready to devour whatever came its way. It was believed that is home was a tunnel underwater that ran from Tongkaob to where our church now stands. Later, Kogtong, the fish, became tamed that more schools of fish go nearer to Tongkaob easier for people to fish. Because of the bounty Kogtong brought to the fishermen, they changed the name of the island to Kogtong now Cogtong.

Basta ang acronym, CVRP. Mangroves man to ilang tirada.

Calape is the 24th largest municipality in terms of land area out of 47 municipalities of  Bohol Province.  Historic records show that the Spanish nationals arrived in this locality now known as Calape and by that time, they  noticed that there already exists a well-established community of native villagers.  There are two versions as to how Calape got its name.  One version is that, Calape got its name from a plant specie of rattan called “CA’PE, which abound the place then. The other version was from plant specie called CAPE’ that is the source of a common beverage, which still grow abundantly in this town until now.  The CA’PE or  CAPE’ later become  CALAPE.

Pangangan Island
Pangangan was previously called by our old folks as “Pangawan”. From the word “panggaw”.
N.b. Panggaw is a kind of fish trap used by some fishers to catch fishes. And this kind of fishing was very popular within this island since the olden days.
The word “pangawan” was become “Pangangan” as derived by the generation of people living in this place ‘til date is an official name of this island.
The cost way connects from main land to pangangan was completely constructed by locals without involving an engineering construction practices after WWII, and believed to be the longest cost way in the Philippines.

Central Visayas Regional Projects (with an "s"). Maayo to sya nga mga project which lasted until the early '90s. Didto magsugod ang pagtukod og mga marine sanctuaries, mangrove reforestation ug tree planting sa upaw nga mga bukid, like Magsaysay in Talibon nga nahimo jung learning site for contour farming. I was able to visit all the sites, ma-isla man o ma-bukid, to document the developments as bases for success stories that I was commissioned to write. Ug siyempre, kada lugar, lami'g kaon!

"Panglao" was also named after "panggaw".  Kanang causeway sa Pangangan taas jud bitaw kaayo. I tkink 7 km na siya. Daghan langgam kon hunas.

Raqz, unsa may dangog sa "Madangog"? Dagha'g lumboy sa "Lomboy"?

Ah, Hinumowan. Nindot ngalana. Humok paminawon.  ;D

Genomoan, after a legend about a carabao left to wallow or “homol” in the river by its owner who had to leave for home because of a stomachache. The farmer’s condition got serious while it was raining hard causing the river to swell. In his delirium, the farmer kept murmuring about his “hinomolan” or the carabao he left to wallow in the river.

Lintuan, after “balintong-balintong” or “tuwang-tuwang”, the changing movement of sand near Lawis Point caused by the blowing of the south and north winds.  Tinuod, daghan pung nangabalintong ug nangatuwang nga mga sakyanan dinhing dapita bisan pag gi-ayo na ni. Karon lang bulana dihay duha ka disgrasya nga nahitabo niining maong dapit.

Susama pud sa Lintuan ang origin sa ngalan sa Pantudlan sa isla sa Cabilao. Pantudlan was named after “tulod-tulod”, the thrusting action of the waves resulting in the transfer of the sand to the southern side of Baluarte Point when the north wind blows and to the northern side when the south wind blows.

Bohol to Southern Leyte; Bohol to Siquijor; Bohol to Mindanao.  Basaha ang history sa Camiguin, closely associated sa migration sa mga Bol-anon.  A former governor of Bohol who visited the Caraga Region (Surigao and Agusan provinces) was told that Boholanos taught the locals how to conduct business and organize communities.

Nakabasa bitaw ko kabahin sa una kunong mga Bol-anon sa northern Mindanao. Sa mid-19th century nagtukod og garrisons ang mga Katsila didto kay misiaw ang Moro marauders. Mga Bol-anon maoy ilang gidestino didto. Diha kunoy gitugotan nga magdala sa ilang pamilya.

Bohol to Southern Leyte; Bohol to Siquijor; Bohol to Mindanao.  Basaha ang history sa Camiguin, closely associated sa migration sa mga Bol-anon.  A former governor of Bohol who visited the Caraga Region (Surigao and Agusan provinces) was told that Boholanos taught the locals how to conduct business and organize communities.

Ang bol-anon kuno mao ang "the traveler islanders".  :)

Ang nakanindot sa Bol-anon kay bisag asa sija sa tibuok kapupud-an o tibuok kalibutan, maghandum jud og Bohol unja kon mahimo, mouli jud. Diha koy nakailang sano nga tua na manimujo sa Norway pero nag-subscribe og Bohol newspaper!

Diay akong tampo:

Ang Tagbilaran gikan sa pung nga tago-bilaan kay kadto mga Bilaan sa Mindanao sa panahon nga nauso ang "slave trade" ang mga moros mamihag ug mga lumad diha sa Misamis ug ilang ibaligya sa Sultan sa cotabato ug Sulo. Duha ka klaseng lumad ang ilang bihagon Bilaan ug Manubo. Tungod kay nahadlok sila sa mga Moros ang mga manubo nanagan sa bukid pero ang mga bilaan hinglalin tabok sa dagat didto sa Bohol.

Dihay mga lugar nga maayo nilang himoan ug pinuy-anan pero gipili nila ang Tagbilaran tungod kay pang-pang. Boot pasabot nga kung mugukod man nila ang mga moros mosaka una sila sa pang-pang. Ug sa english pa naay ilang "defensive position".

Pag abot nila sa Tagbilaran diha nay lumlupyo sa Baclayon, Loay, Dauis ug Panglao... nga ang akong boot pasabot nga silang mga Bilaan maoy nagmugna sa lungsod sa Tagbilaran.

Ang baryo sa Cortes nga sa una ang tawag Wadje. Tungod ni kay ang mga unang lumulupyo diha mga Wadje ug tawgon karon mga Bombay. Ang akong lola ug makakita ug Bombay wadje ang iyang tawag.

Ang Dauis ginganlan ug Dauis gikan sa pung nga ininsik "dao o dau". Sa unang panahon ang mga lumulupyo sa Dauis mga insik. Mao nga makakita ka ug taga Dauis mura'g nawong ug insik. Ang Panglao gikan pud ni sa pung nga Malay or Malay language nga "palaw" nga boot pasabot isla o pulo. Ang pung Panglao o Panglaw tungod sa "accent" sa mga insik.

Ang Candijay gikan ni sa Sanskrit o pung sa mga Indian nga usa sa mga unang lalin sa Bohol. Ang pung "Candi" ug sa English pa temple ug ang "jay o jaya" gikan sa pung nga Vijaya ug sa atong sinultihan karon bisaya... nga ang boot pasabot sa inenglis "victory". So Candijay means temple of victory. Ug subayon nimo ang storya sa Candijay dihay mga tawo nga indian ang kagikan nga karon ang ilang mga lubong nadiskubrehan sa kilid sa pang-pang. 

Ang Tubgon tataw kaayo nganong ginganlan ug Tubigon kay "swampy" o matubig pero ang Calape nga duol sa Tubigon di ba daghan lapok o kalapukan nga nahimo na karong mga fishponds. Tingali pud ug diha gikan ang pung Calape.

Ang pung Jagna gikan sa Sanskrit pud na pero taas nga pung. Gigamit na lang karon ang mubo nga version mao nang Jagna. Daghang mga pinulongan sa Bohol nga makalibug kung dis-a gikan tungod sa pagdagan sa panahon nga ang unang mga tawo nga gigikanan sa pung nangawa o milalin sa laing lugar. Pananglitan kinta kanang pung nga banat-i. Ambot ug kinsa sa Bohol ang tiggamit ining punga pero ang pasabot
ug banat-i mao nang bojang-jang. Kana bitawng itum ug puwa ang iyang "color" nga liso. Naay bod sa Tagbilaran nga ginganlan ug Banat-i Hill... Kinsa may gahatag ug ngan ini? Ang nag-ngan ini mao tung gapuyo una sa Mansasa nga mga lumad nga ang pango mao si Datu Dalisdisan tungod kay gihuraw siya sa mga Purtuguese milalin siya ug ang iyang mga kabanay ngadto sa Aklan ug Iloilo. Pagkawa nila sa Bohol nawa pud ang ilang pinulongan pero ang pung Banat-i Hill gapabilin tungod naandan na nga maoy tawag sa bod. Ang hingpuli nila sa lugar mao tung mga insik ug mao nang Mansasa gikan sa pung nga ininsik.

VALENCIA:

In geography, a VALE is a wide river valley, usually with a particularly wide flood plain or flat valley bottom. Vales commonly occur between the escarpment slopes of pairs of chalk downs, where the chalk dome has been eroded, exposing less resistant underlying rock, usually clay.

ENCIA is the name of a spanish family matriarch that founded the town - obviously, she is my great-great-great grandmother.

that's how our town got its name. VALENCIA. vale owned by encia or lola ensay (that's how we call our matriarch)
