I learned so many things about past after watching this educational video and it gave me more knowledge about our culture, the video is very interesting because he mentioned so many things about the past and as a history student I need to know that kind of events/things for me to have a knowledge about the history. one of the things I learned is that juan de placencia, the author is a franciscan missionary rather than a native tagalog. he arrived in the philippines in 1577.

Mas naintindihan ko ito dahil sa isinulat ni Juan de Placensia na "Las Costumbres de los Tagalog Filipinas". Karamihan ng dokumento ng Pilipinas ay nasa wikang Espanyol sapagkat tatlong siglo tayong sinakop ng Espanya at kailan lang ito naisalin. Ang Costumbres ay ang naglalarawan sa buhay, communities, religion, at kultura ng mga Filipino. Nalaman ko rin dito kung paano naipag-isa ang mga Filipino at ang importansya ng pagsasagawa ng tala. Ang mga sinulat niya ay karamihan tungkol sa relihiyon at ang impluwensiya ng columbres historiograpiya.
