BURP...
oops, sorry!

Bohol is an island of the Philippines located in the Central Visayas region.
Bohol is the tenth largest island of the Philippines.
Although people had been living on Bohol long before Magellan reached the islands that are now the Philippines,
written records start here, and about the events before that time little is known,
and have to be carefully reconstructed from oral traditions and archaeological evidence.
In 1521, Ferdinand Magellan and his crew were the first Europeans to reach the Philippines,
coming from the East.
When they arrived they weren't really welcome:
Magellan himself was killed on Mactan Island near Cebu,
at the hand of a local chieftain or "Datu", Lapu Lapu.
Luckily now local people are infinitely kinder to foreign visitors....
