Filipino Prehistory: Rediscovering Pre-colonial Heritage

In the history of nations, it is vital to understand the underlying pulse that beats in the course of its experience and narrative. Such is the story of the Filipino nation and its people-their aspiration and quest for identity and consciousness. For many centuries, the forces of the so-called "benevolent imperialism" and "pedagogical imperialism" had swept through the Philippine landscape. With the coming of the Spaniards and the Americans, the Filipino was subjugated and oppressed into a docile and lethargic ignoramus. One recurrent issue in the study and interpretation of Philippine history is the presentation of the viewpoint of the historians' narrative: Euro-centric versus Asian-centric historiography, colonial history versus anti-colonial/nationalist history. Aside from the problematic dichotomy of viewpoints, the Filipino historian realizes that he is facing a daunting task of sifting through a plethora of primary sources written by the colonial Other. Is it possible then to write a history of the Filipino people from his own viewpoint? This paper looks into the seminal book of F. Landa Jocano Filipino Prehistory: Rediscovering Pre-colonial Heritage (1998).
