when cato's book came out, it became the bible of every moro sword collectors. it was regarded as the most accurate book when it comes to moro weapons. as time go by, it was questioned on some of its claims, as one can read on the earlier version of this forum. now, we know some of the claims in that book is just not true. the point is, it was challenged, regardless of how thorough cato research this massive project, as far as travelling all over the world. but still, we questioned it, and the truth was revealed.


it's good to question these so called documents from time to time. just because common knowledge states such and such, it doesn't mean it's the fact.

lapulapu's exploit might not mean much to a lot of you, but since he and his warriors used bladed weapons to beat magellan, i believe that's relevant to this forum. btw, how many of you are aware that there are strong evidence rajah (or rajiki) lapulapu was a moro? what does that got to do with anything? well, now it makes more sense when pigafetta mentioned that the natives were using campilanes, don't it?
