pinoy-culture: So about 2 years ago I made a pre-colonial Philippines reference post with links to English translated texts from Spanish written accounts of our ancestors during the early colonization, to Chinese accounts, some books and essays, videos, and posts that were already written on Pinoy-Culture.If you remember I did do an updated list last September that I posted but on wordpress, not on Tumblr. This is when I was debating whether to have Pinoy-Culture have it’s own blog separate from Tumblr but after a couple months I preferred to leave it and stick with Tumblr for now. Sadly while transferring the domain over from the wordpress blog to here I lost all the posts I have written over there that wasn’t fully posted on here but linked, including this post. At least that is what I thought. I’ve been looking through my databases for my hosting as I am working on creating two separate sites for my aunt and a family friends business and thought what if they were stored somehow somewhere? Turns out after turning to faithful Google, I learned that you can indeed find all the posts you have written on Wordpress saved in a certain directory. And long a behold I did find it!Thank goodness because this reference post is one of my most requested and it has more updated links than the original. So I will be posting this again and I have also added a few other links and references on here that I have personally found and read over the past few months. This post is dedicated for those of you interested in reading the material yourselves and enriching yourself with knowledge of our history and cultures. Enjoy!I have broken it down to 4 sections.I. Pre-colonial History & Culture Based on Primary Accounts & DictionariesPretty self explanatory. This section focuses on resource on looking at our precolonial history and cultures. The links are for the most part linked to the English translations of the early Spanish accounts and other primary sources regarding our ancestors and history from nearby countries like China, Brunei, & Japan.II. BooksOnce again, pretty self explanatory. This section focuses on books regarding our history and cultures. Think of it as a list of a Pilipin@ library that you should check out and read.III. Video ClipsThough not a lot, there are a few useful videos regarding various aspects of our history and cultures and this section will post links to those videos.Front Page of the Boxer CodexIV. Articles, Essays, & Online ArchivesThe final category, which again is pretty self explanatory.This list will be the official reference list and will be periodically updated as I found more resources to add. If you have or find anything to add feel free to drop a comment below so I can add it to the list.I.

The Tagalogs (Moro’s) distrusted the Spaniards due to this, taking back their goods because of the ill-treatment of the Spaniards. It talks about the asking of married Spaniards to come to the islands as the natives didn’t trust and feel safe toward the unmarried Spaniards but to those that had wives.Letter from Captain Juan Pacheco Maldonado to Felipe II (Manila 1575?) He begins by narrating briefly the conquest of Luzón; then describes the island and its trade, which is carried on with both China and Japan. On account of its wealth and importance, Luzón should be thoroughly subjugated; and Maldonado enumerates the provisions that should be made for that end. Forty or fifty ecclesiastics should be sent; and to aid in their labors a prelate should be appointed, for which post the writer recommends Fray Diego de Herrera. Maldonado urges that five hundred soldiers be sent from Spain and that with these troops conquest should be made of the Liu-Kiu and Japan Islands. He asks also for artisans to build ships, suggesting for this purpose the negro slaves thus employed at Havana.Conquest of the island of Luzon.
