Being hospitable toward de Legazpi and his men, he received a letter of gratitude from the Spanish King, Philip II. He also received a gift from the king in recognition of his grandfather's hospitality to Ferdinand Magellan. Though he was one of the first converts of Catholicism under de Legazpi, he left his faith and allegiance to the Spanish after around fifty years. Together with a babaylan named Pagali and his children, he built a temple for a diwata, and he incited people from six towns to participate in the revolt. It is believed that Pagali used some magic to attract followers, and thought that they could turn the Spaniards into clay by hurling bits of earth at them. Parish priest Father Melchor de Vera went to Cebu to report the insurrection. The rebellion was suppressed by , the alcalde mayor of Cebu, and the Spanish and Filipino colonial troops in forty ships sent by Governor-General Alonso Fajardo de Entenza. Encamping within the temple for a diwata, the Spaniards burned it down after ten days. Bankaw's head was pierced in a bamboo stake and was displayed for the public to serve as a warning. His son was beheaded, and one babaylan was burned at the stake. Three other followers were executed by a firing squad. In order to dispel the blindness caused by the influence of diwata, eighty one rebel priests were burned. Some rebels were captured, including the daughter and son of Bankaw.

Recibió a Miguel López de Legazpi cuando llegó a Filipinas en 1564 y se convirtió al cristianismo. Por su hospitalario acogimiento con López de Legazpi y sus hombres, recibió una carta de agradecimiento del rey de España Felipe II. También recibió un obsequio del rey en reconocimiento a la hospitalidad de su abuelo hacia Fernando de Magallanes. Aunque fue uno de los primeros conversos del catolicismo bajo el mandato de Legazpi, dejó su fe y lealtad a los españoles unos cincuenta años después. Junto con un babaylán (monje animista) llamado Pagali y sus hijos, construyó un templo para un diwata (deidad local) e incitó a personas de seis pueblos a participar en la revuelta. Se cree que Pagali usó algo de magia para atraer seguidores, y pensó que podrían convertir a los españoles en arcilla arrojándoles trozos de tierra. El párroco Padre Melchor de Vera, acudió a Cebú para denunciar la insurrección. La rebelión fue reprimida por , alcalde mayor de Cebú, y las tropas coloniales españolas y filipinas en cuarenta barcos enviados por el gobernador general Alonso Fajardo de Entenza. Los españoles acamparon en el interior de un templo dedicado a un diwata y lo quemaron diez días más tarde. La cabeza de Bankaw fue perforada en una estaca de bambú y se mostró al público como aviso. Su hijo fue decapitado y un babaylán fue quemado en la hoguera. Otros tres seguidores fueron ejecutados por un pelotón de fusilamiento. Para disipar el encanto que causó el diwata, ochenta y un sacerdotes rebeldes fueron quemados. Algunos rebeldes fueron capturados, incluidos la hija y el hijo de Bankaw. (es) |
