    The only written accounts of the Philippine past before the 19th century came from Spanish sources like Pedro Chrino's earliest work about the Philippines and Juan de Placencia's writings on Tagalog and Pampangan customs and laws. These Spanish chronicles from the 17th century focused on how Christianity benefited Filipinos through missionary activities, portraying animistic religion as manifestations of the devil. It was not until the 19th century that Filipinos could assert themselves for their rights and historians could explore indigenous history, enabled by the western education introduced by missionaries. The search for the Filipino past both resulted from and encouraged nationalism, with Father Jose Burgos being a key early figure who articulated the aspirations of his generation
