Dear Patron,

We've got two new Shorts! And as always, we are sharing them with you first.

There's an interesting origin story to these videos - their creators, Kevin Kopp and Wystan Melicor, are both students of the University of Texas, and members of its 'Decisive Eras' club, which makes history content for YouTube. Another member of the club is our own Patrick of PMF Productions. He shared his time and expertise to help Kevin and Wystan produce these great videos on topics of their choice - so big thanks to all three.

The first video covers the Battle of Mactan in the Philippines, which brought an abrupt end to Ferdinand Magellan's circumnavigation of the world. The second video explores the founding myths of Rome, in an age of kings and wolves with strong maternal instincts.

We hope you enjoy them. Thank you for your support, and thank you again to Kevin, Wystan and Patrick!

A short to whet our appetites for some Roman Rebublic videos in the medium term?

Well done by the students who worked on this project. Maybe when they graduate they can join your team! 📚📚📖⚔️👍

Sooo… History of Rome coming at some point is what I’m getting from this 🥹

Thank you for covering the Battle of Mactan! As a Filipino, it’s a rare treat to see our history covered especially our Pre-colonial history. Though in recent years, Lapu-Lapu’s history had underwent scrutiny. The most telling is that he wasn’t present in the battle as, contrary to the famous monument you see depicting him, it was said he was already really old to fight. Another is that most Filipinos only know about him during this battle and that seems to make him viewed in rose tinted lenses as there are emerging historical accounts that he was a pirate and not even native to Visayas. It’s an ongoing debate but only because our historians want to ensure authenticity of the histories, especially tales about him come from secondary sources. Nonetheless, the Battle of Mactan remains a significant part of our history as it doesn’t downplay the many hundreds of other warriors of the Datu that fought bravely that day. Mabuhay!

Nice!

I had also heard that Lapu-Lapu was a Muslim but this seems to be heresy and most evidence points to the fact that he was an adherent of local animist beliefs.

That's interesting. To be frank, I am not well-read as well on the pre-colonial histories as our education system highly prioritizes the 16th-20th Century or our Colonial Period and Independence Century which primarily focus on events on Luzon. But from what I recall it's likely that Lapu-Lapu is Muslim, given that Mindanao had close ties to Indonesia and that there is an account claiming Lapu-Lapu was from Borneo and settled in Mactan in his later years. Again, don't take my recollection as fact, there are a bunch of back and forths on Lapu-Lapu, given that the man himself made no written records or if there were, none survived. So whether he was a Muslim or held our natives' diverse animist beliefs is still up to debate, that's why there's been a push to prioritize study of our Pre-Colonial history.
