Outlines
đ Historical Interpretation and the Role of History
The first paragraph introduces the concept of history as not just a record of past events but as a tool to understand the present and future. It emphasizes the importance of historical interpretation and the impact of historical events on society. The paragraph discusses the traditional view of history as a documentation of past events and the contemporary view that sees history as socially relevant. It highlights the famous quote by Dr. Jose Rizal, emphasizing the importance of learning from the past to shape the future. The paragraph also touches on the idea that history is not just a collection of facts but a series of judgments and interpretations by historians, which can be influenced by personal, cultural, or political perspectives.
đ The Myth of the Code of Kalantiao
The second paragraph delves into the myth surrounding the Code of Kalantiao, a supposed legal code from the epic history of Maragtas. The code is said to have been compiled by Pedro Monteclaro in 1907 and is considered a source of pride for the people of Aklan. It is claimed to have been established by Dato Bendahara Kalantiao, the third chief of Panay, in 1433. The paragraph lists some of the brutal punishments outlined in the code, such as being tied to a large stone and thrown into the river for theft or murder. However, the paragraph concludes with the revelation that the Code of Kalantiao is a fabrication, a finding supported by William Henry Scott's research, which discredits the code as a historical document.
đ Debunking the Code of Kalantiao
The third paragraph continues the discussion on the Code of Kalantiao, explaining that it was linked to a historical fiction written by Jose E. Marco in 1913, titled 'The Ancient Legends of the Island of Negros.' The paragraph points out that prominent historians did not agree with William Henry Scott's findings that the code was a fabrication. Despite this, some people, particularly in Negros, still believe in the legitimacy of the code due to its significance as a source of pride and identity. The paragraph concludes that the Code of Kalantiao is not recognized as part of Philippine history, challenging the notion that it represents a legitimate legal code from the past.

Transcripts
did you know that the phone sa aking mga
kabata which includes the famous line
ang hindi magmahal sa kanyang salita
mahigit sa hayop at malansang isda was
actually not written by jose rizal did
you know that Rizal's first encounter of
the word Kalayaan was when he was 21
years old Good day everyone I am Salma a
abdulgani from bss w1a and we will
discuss four topics in this video making
sense of the past historical
interpretation code of kalantiao sa
aking mga kabata and multiperspectivity
before we dive into these topics These
are the learning objectives in this
chapter the students are expected to
interpret historical events using
primary source recognize the
multiplicity of interpretation that can
be read from a historical
text historically history has often been
find as the study of past events this
traditional view focuses on documenting
and understanding What happened in the
past dates events Figures and places
It's about recording and analyzing what
happened And why providing a narrative
of human experience over time but in a
more contemporary definition of history
history emphasizes not not just the past
But how it impacts or influences and
shapes the present and future historical
events are socially relevant in our
society because it help us to become
more integrated human beings This is
very similar to the famous saying of Dr
Jose Rizal ang hindi marunong lumingon
sa kanyang pinanggalingan ay hindi
makakarating sa kanyang paroroonan
because this is a reminder na kung ano
man ang status mo or kison mo ngayon or
in the present time it is the result of
your past decisions and actions your
past molded you to become who you are
today so jofre barl defines history as
the attempt to discover on the basis of
fragmentary evidence the significant
things about the past so kailangan natin
magtangka na matuklasan ang mahahalagang
pangyayari sa pamamagitan ng
katibayan o ebidensya upang maintindihan
o matuklasan natin ang mga pangyayari sa
nakaraan hindi porket sinabi ni kuan na
ganito ganyan ang nangyari ay maniniwala
ka na agad sinabi lang ni maritz na
nabalo ang anak ni Sisa ay naniwala ka
na agad t's pinagkalat mo pa we need to
analyze and pag tagpi-tagpi in ang mga
ebidensya para malaman kung totoo nga ba
ang
nangyari he also notes the history we
read though bason facts is strictly
speaking not factual at all but a series
of accepted judgments ang kasaysayan na
binabasa natin kahit na nakabatay sa mga
katotohanan hindi naman talaga ganap na
makatotohanan kundi isang serye ng mga
paghuhusga ano ba kahulugan nito ang
kasaysayan ay nakabase sa mga aktwal na
kaganapan at datos tulad ng mga petsa
lugar at tauhan ang mga pang
nangyayaring ito ay may tunay na
pinagmulan at pinapalabas sa mga tala o
dokumento sa kabila ng pagiging batay sa
mga katotohanan ang paraan ng
pagpapahayag ng kasaysayan ay hindi
ganap na obhetibo ang mga historyan at
manunulat ng kasaysayan ay naglalapat ng
kanilang mga sariling interpretasyon
pananaw at paghuhusga sa mga kaganapan
ang kasaysayan ay hindi lamang isang
simpleng paglalahad ng mga nangyari ito
ay bubuo ng mga desisyon kung paano
iprepresent ang mga kaganapan Aling
aspeto ang bigyang diin at kung paano
iinterpret ang mga datos ang mga
desisyong ito ay madalas na naaapektuhan
ng personal kultural o politikal na
pananaw ng mga
historian halimbawa na lamang ay ang
location ng first mass ni magelan dito
sa Pilipinas napag-aralan natin sa
previous lesson If I'm not mistaken ay
sa chapter 2.1 wherein na mention doun
sa book ni pigafetta na pumunta sila in
this certain Island hindi pinangalanan
to held Magellan's first mass one of the
Filipino historians Vicente de Jesus
claimed that the first mass was held at
maso isang Village sa Butuan in the
Southern region in Mindanao ang kanyang
dahilan ay dahil wala naman daw na
mention sa book ang place na limasawa
habang ang ibang historya naman ay
naniniwala na sa limasawa ito na health
such judgments of historians on how the
past should be seen make the foundation
of historical interpretation so history
can be manipulated or altered this can
be achieved by creating events that
actually did not happen altering o
pinapalitan yyung mga events that
actually did happen yyung mga iba pang
huge events kung saan ito ay totoong
nangyari ay somehow kinakalimutan na
lang dahil yung alternate Version ay mas
tinatanggap nila bilang tama What will
be the result of this act
the knowledge of the truth will die with
those who live or Witness it and the
alternative version will be universally
accepted as true Although historians is
also a Mere human who are capable in
making mistakes but they should be
careful or cautious in setting down
judgments about history because any
unsuitable information may lead people
to uncertainty that is why historical
interpretation is based on the
historian's judgment on how the to pass
should be seen and this historical
interpretation is Actually serving as
the historian's helping tool in
describing analyzing evaluating and
creating an explanation of
past now Let's move forward so k Ano nga
ba ang code of calantiao so the code of
calantiao is a mythical legal code in
the epic history maragtas give you
background details maragtas is Actually
a book written by Pedro Monte claro in
1907 He compiled all the local Legends
of Visayas and it is assumed that the
code of kalantiao is one of his
compilations in fact it became a source
of Pride for the people in Aklan There
Was even a historical marker installed
in the town of Batan Aklan in
1956 with the following text code of
calantiao Dato bendahara calantiao third
chief of Panay born
established his government in the
Peninsula of batang Aklan sakup
considered the first Filipino lawgiver
he promulgated in about 1433 a Penal
Code now known as code of calantiao
containing 18 articles Don Marcelino
aelia of zaragosa Spain obtained the
original manuscript from an old chief of
Panay which was later translated into
Spanish by rapael mvid izam if you
notice the code of galanti was the sa
last name ng chief of Panay na si Dato
bendahara calantiao and it says there
that it contains 18 articles now Ano ang
mga content nito the 18 articles consist
of Datu bendahara calantiao commandments
And punishments during that time if you
dare to disobey the Penal Code or the
commandments of Datu bendahara you will
face immoral and brutal
punishments sa article 1 Itatali ka sa

tatlong beses sa kumukulong tubig sa
paghatol siya ay hahagupitin hanggang
kamatayan sa article 3 walang sino man
ang maaaring magkaroon ng asawang
napakabata ni hindi sila hihigit sa kaya
niyang pangalagaan o gugul gool ng labis
na karangyaan siya na hindi tumupad
hindi sumunod ay hahatulan na lumangoy
ng tatlong oras at sa pangalawang
pagkakataon ay hahagupitin ng mga tinig
hanggang sa kamatayan sa Article 4 Huwag
guluhin ang kapayapaan ng mga libingan
dapat naibigay ang nararapat na
paggalang sa mga kuweba at mga puno kung
saan si sila ay naroroon ang sinumang

sinumang hindi susunod ay kinakailangang
magbayad ng isang buwan ng paggawa sa
anyo ng ginto o pera at kung ang
paglabag ay mauulit ng dalawang beses
siya ay idedeklara na Alipin Ilan lamang
iyan sa mga brutal punishments na dala
ng batas na ito fortunately the code of
calantiao was revealed as Hawks Hawks
means di makatotohanan walang kabuluhan
o gawa-gawa lamang This was according to
William Henry Scott on his research
entitled prehispanic sources in
Philippine history conducted in
University of Santo Thomas on 1968
iniugnay niya ang code na ito ang code
of gantio sa historical fiction na
isinulat ni Jose E Marco noong 1913 na
pinamagatang las antiguas leyende De La
Isla de Negros in English
the ancient Legends of the island of
negros at iniugnay o ni kredit pa ni
Tony Marco sa isang pari na si Jose
Maria pavon as you observe wala namang
nabanggit na Chief od Dat bendahara
kalantiao sa kanilang research and
imagine nung 1433 pa ginawa ang code of
calantiao so di pa sila
ipinanganganak and yung mga prominent o
tanyag na historian did not descent to
scott's finding meaning hindi sila tutol
and agree sila sa findings ng research
ni Scott But there are still who would
like to believe that the code is a
legitimate document specifically iyung
mga tao sa Negros because Iyung code of
kalantiao serve as their pride o doon
sila nakilala kaya mahirap para sa
kanila na tanggapin na ang code of
calantiao ay hindi lehitimo o
makatotohanan therefore the code of
kalantiao was not part of the Philippine
history
