Before Spain: The Forgotten Kingdom of Butuan That Ruled the Seas

Описание: Before Spain: The Forgotten Kingdom of Butuan That Ruled the Seas

Before Spain ever reached the Philippines…
Before European maps even knew these islands existed…
There was a powerful maritime kingdom that ruled Southeast Asian trade routes, sailed massive ocean-going ships, and traded directly with China, India, and the wider Asian world.

This is the forgotten Kingdom of Butuan.

Mentioned in ancient Chinese imperial records, rich in gold, and home to advanced shipbuilding technology like the Balangay boats, Butuan was not a myth or a legend — it was a real empire hidden by colonial history.

In this documentary-style video, we uncover:
• The true story of the Kingdom of Butuan
• How ancient Filipinos ruled the seas before colonization
• Evidence from archaeology and Chinese historical records
• The Golden Tara and its Hindu-Buddhist influence
• How Spain erased powerful pre-colonial civilizations
• Why Butuan disappeared from global memory

This is not just Philippine history.
This is global history that was silenced.

Watch until the end — because history doesn’t disappear.
It whispers.
