It also tells how the inscription on the marker at the site says that “In the vicinity of

this place, Andres Bonifacio and about one thousand Katipuneros met on the morning of
August 23, 1896 and decided to launch the revolution against the Spanish government in
the Philippines. They affirmed their decision by tearing their cedulas, symbols of the
enslavement of the Filipinos. This was the first cry of the oppressed people against the
Spanish nation, and was given force by means of arms.” In 1896, according to the
National Historical Commission (NHCP), the house and yard of Juan Ramos had stood
on this site.

The video displays countless examples of the commencement of the revolt against Spain,
which has recently been recognized as "The Cry of Pugad Lawin"; it also depicts the
alleged location of "Pugad Lawin," which is located in Brgy. A life-size, bizarrely
rigid tableau of Katipuneros tearing their cedulas may be found in Bahay Toro, Quezon

The information in the video is from reliable sources since historians made it known. They
specifically concur that it is not essential to know the exact time and place. With a few
maverick exceptions, they all agree that the "Cry" happened between August 23 and August

unhappy that decades of discussion have not yielded any conclusive solutions since official
history necessitates precise dates to remember and precise locations to mark. They have failed
to meet the challenge of identifying the "Cry."
Such an opinion was expressed by Nicolas Zafra in 1960. The "Cry's" specifics might

the larger scope of events, he admitted that the historical profession had a responsibility to
ensure that the facts of public history were as accurate as humanly possible.
Additionally, I also know that the unang labanan was the subject of the first memorial
honoring the events of August 1896, as Borromeo-Buehler notes. "Homenaje del Pueblo
Filipino a los Heroes de '96 / Ala-ala ng Bayang Pilipino sa mga Bayani ng '96,"
read the main inscription on the plinth, while a smaller plaque bore the date "26 Agosto
1896." The statue was unveiled in Balintawak, the largest and best-known barrios in the
general area where the Katipuneros had been, in September 1911, in front of
gathered in August of 1896.
Balintawak was frequently abbreviated to refer to Even before the monument was built,
that local location and the "Cry" had earned the nickname "Cry of Balintawak."
However, no one claimed in 1911 that the statue was where the initial fight had actually
