DID YOU KNOW? | Banate: Existed in the 1734 Murillo Velarde Map

Antes pa ang 1734, may Banate na.

Isa sa pinakamatuod nga pamatuod sang sinauna nga kasaysayan sang aton banwa amo ang 1734 Murillo Velarde Map, ang una nga detalyado kag siyentipiko nga mapa sang Pilipinas nga ginpublikar sang Heswita nga pari nga si Fr. Pedro Murillo Velarde.

Sa amo nga mapa, makita gid ang ngalan nga "Banate Viejo."

Ang pulong nga "Viejo" sa Kastila nagakahulugan sang daan ukon sinauna. Ang pagtawag sang mga Kastila sa aton banwa bilang Banate Viejo nagapakita nga kilala na nila ang Banate bilang isa ka daan kag establisado nga pamuy-an, indi isa ka bag-o nga banwa nga ila gintukod.

Ini nagapamatuod nga ang Banate may madalom nga kasaysayan antes pa ang pormal nga kolonisasyon sang mga Kastila. Sa pag-abot nila sa Panay, may yara na diri sang komunidad nga may kaugalingon nga kultura, pagpangabuhi, kag pagdumala.

Ang paglitaw sang Banate Viejo sa mapa sang 1734 isa ka makabugal nga pamatuod nga ang aton banwa kabahin na sang mga pinakauna nga pamuy-an sa Panay nga ginrekord sa kasaysayan.

DID YOU KNOW? | Banate: An Ancient Settlement of Panay

Aton bala nahibal-an nga ang Banate isa sa pinakasinauna nga pamuy-an sa isla sang Panay?

Antes pa nag-abot ang mga Kastila, ang Banate—nga kilala anay bilang Bobog ukon Bobob—kabahin na sang mga organisado nga teritoryo sang Confederation of Madja-as, isa ka sinauna nga katilingban sang Panay nga ginpatukod sang mga migrante halin sa Borneo.

Ginsulat sang Augustinian historian nga si Fray Gaspar de San Agustin nga ang Bobog (Banate), upod sang Araut, Anilao, kag Hapitan, isa sa mga sinauna nga baybayonon nga pamuy-an kag sentro sang komersyo sa Panay, nga ginapuy-an sang mga dungganon nga pamilya kag datu.

May mga pagtuon man nga nagasugyot nga sang mga 600 A.D., may mga Malay settlers nga naghalin sa Sumatra kag Sulawesi nga nagpanimuyo sa Panay. Ang iban sa ila nagpadulong sa Bobog (Banate Viejo), diin nagtukod sila sang komunidad, nagpangisda, nag-uma sa malapad nga duta, kag nagpalambo sang kabuhi sa higad sang suba kag baybay.

Ang Maragtas ni Pedro Alcantara Monteclaro nagasugid man nga ang Alakaygan kag Bubug (Bobog) kabahin sa pinakauna nga mga lugar nga ginbungkalan sang mga unang Malay settlers, diin sila nagtanom sang humay, kawayan, niyog, buri, sibukao, kag iban pa nga mga tanom nga ila gindala halin sa Borneo.
