SOURCES
FOR ASSESSMENT
AND ANALYSIS
CHAPTER 6.2
What are Historical Sources?
Historical sources are the
main way that we can
interact with and understand
more about past events.
Why is it important to know
about historical sources?
Historical sources give us an in-depth
understanding of things that have
happened in the past from the point
of view of the people who lived
through them. They’re usually but
not always primary sources.

STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST

1. CATALONAN
Either a man or woman, rule
general in island. We know today
that the Catalonan were the
Tagalog equivalent of Visayan
Babaylan and functioned as a
healer, shaman, seer and a
community leader.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST
2. MANGAGAUAY
The goddess who is said to have
been responsible for the
occurrence of diseases. She is said
to disguise herself as a healer,
roaming the countryside not to
heal but to induce maladies with
her charms
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST

3. MANYISALAT
Same as mangagauay; has the
power of applying remedies to
lovers that they would abandon
and despise theirown wives;
prevent them to have intercourse
with the latter. If woman are
abandon,It would bring sickness
to her
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST
4. MANCOCOLAM
Whose duty was to emit fire from
himself at night, once or oftener each
month. This fire could not be
extinguished; nor could it be thus
emitted except as the priest wallowed in
the ordure and filth which falls from the
houses.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST

5. HOCLOBAN
Which is another kind of witch, of greater
efficacy than the mangagauay. Without the
use of medicine, and by simply saluting or
raising the hand, they killed whom they
chose. But if they desired to heal those
whom they had made ill by their charms,
they did so by using other charms.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST
6. SILAGAN
If they saw anyone clothed in
white, to tear outhis liver and eat
it, thus causing his death. This,
like the preceding, was in the
island of Catanduanes.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST

7. MAGTATANGAL
Its purpose was to show himself at
night to many persons, without his
head or entrails. In such wise the
devil walked about and carried, or
pretended to carry, his head to
different places; and, in the
morning, returned it to his body
remaining, as before, alive.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST
8. OSUANG
Equivalent to ” sorcerer;” they
say that they have seen him
fly, and that he murdered men
and ate their flesh.
This was among the Visayas
Islands; among the Tagalogs
these did not exist.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST

9. MANGAGAYOMA
They made charms for lovers out of
herbs, stones, and wood, which
would infuse the heart with love.
Thus did they deceive the people,
although sometimes, through the
intervention of the devil, they
gained their ends.
STINCTIONS OF DEVILS ACCORDING TO THE PRIEST
10. SONAT
“Preacher.” It was his office to
help one to die, at which time he
predicted the salvation or
condemnation of the soul. It was
not lawful for the functions of this
office to be fulfilled by others than
people of high standing,

islands.

12. BAYOGUIN
Signified a ” cotquean,” a man
whose nature inclined toward that
of a woman. Ignorance at its
finest.  The Spanish certainly left
their mark with this one.
 
KARTILYA NG
KATIPUNAN
BY EMILIO
JACINTO
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
The Kartilya ng Katipunan served as the
guidebook for new members of the
organization, which laid out the group's rules
and principles
The Kartilya was about the fourteen lessons
that serve as the Katipuneros’ guide in living
with morals and good values. It was like a
code of conduct that shows how to be a true
Filipino in words and action
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
01 Ang kabuhayang hindi ginugugol sa isang
malaki at banal na kadahilanan ay kahoy na
walang lilim, kundi damong makamandag.

02
Ang gawang magaling na nagbubuhat sa
pagpipita sa sarili, at hindi sa talagang nasang
gumawa ng kagalingan, ay di kabaitan.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
03 Ang tunay na kabanalan ay ang
pagkakawang gawa, ang pagibig sa kapua at
ang isukat ang bawat kilos, gawa’t
pangungusap sa talagang Katuiran.
04
Maitim man at maputi ang kulay ng balat,
lahat ng tao’y magkakapantay; mangyayaring
ang isa’y higtan sa dunong, sa yaman, sa
ganda…; ngunit di mahihigtan sa pagkatao.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
05 Ang may mataas na kalooban inuuna ang
puri sa pagpipita sa sarili; ang may hamak
na kalooban inuuna ang pagpipita sa sarili sa
puri.
06
Sa taong may hiya, salita’y panunumpa.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
07 Huwag mong sasayangin ang panahon; ang
yamang nawala’y magyayaring magbalik;
nguni’t panahong nagdaan na’y di na muli
pang magdadaan. Value of time
08
Ipagtanggol mo ang inaapi, at kabakahin
ang umaapi.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
09 Ang taong matalino’y ang may pagiingat sa
bawat sasabihin, at matutong ipaglihim ang
dapat ipaglihim.

10 Sa daang matinik ng kabuhayan, lalaki ay

siyang patnugot ng asawa’t mga anak; kung
ang umaakay ay tungo sa sama, ang
patutunguhan ng iaakay ay kasamaan din.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
Ang babae ay huwag mong tingnang isang bagay na
11 libangan lamang, kundi isang katuwang at karamay
sa mga kahirapan nitong kabuhayan; gamitan mo ng
buong pagpipitagan ang kaniyang kahinaan, at
alalahanin ang inang pinagbuhata’t nagiwi sa iyong
kasangulan.
12
Ang di mo ibig na gawin sa asawa mo, anak at
kapatid, ay huwag mong gagawin sa asawa,
anak, at kapatid ng iba.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
Ang kamahalan ng tao’y wala sa pagkahari,
13 wala sa tangus ng ilong at puti ng mukha, wala
sa pagkaparing kahalili ng Dios wala sa mataas
na kalagayan sa balat ng lupa; wagas at tunay na
mahal na tao, kahit laking gubat at walang
nababatid kundi ang sariling wika, yaong may
magandang asal, may isang pangungusap, may
dangal at puri; yaong di napaaapi’t di nakikiapi;
yaong marunong magdamdam at marunong
lumingap sa bayang tinubuan.
KARTILYA NG KATIPUNAN
Paglaganap ng mga aral na ito at maningning na
14 sumikat ang araw ng mahal na Kalayaan dito sa
kaabaabang Sangkalupuan, at sabugan ng
matamis niyang liwanag ang nangagkaisang
magkalahi’t magkakapatid ng ligaya ng walang
katapusan, ang mga ginugol na buhay, pagud, at
mga tiniis na kahirapa’y labis nang natumbasan.
Kung lahat ng ito’y mataruk na ng nagiibig
pumasuk at inaakala niyang matutupad ang mga
tutungkulin, maitatala ang kaniyang ninanasa sa
kasunod nito.
