THE HISTORY OF MAGINDANAO
Before the first mass was celebrated on the northern shore of Mindanao
mosques had been built on the fertile banks of the Pulangi, and before
Legaspi landed on Cebu Kabungsuwan had been declared and acknowledged
datu of Magindanao.
The Mohammedan conqueror of Mindanao was neither an admiral of a fleet
nor a leader of an army of regular troops. He had no nation back of
him to reënforce his battalions nor a royal treasury to support his
enterprise. His expedition was not prompted by mere chivalry or the
gallant adventures of discovery. He was not looking for a new route
to rich lands nor searching for spices and gold dust. The emigrant
sought a new land to live in, and trusted his fortune and success to
the valor of his crew and the influence of his witchcraft.
