What is the legend of the 10 Bornean datus?

The legend says that in the 13th century, 10 datus or chieftains from Borneo left their land together with their families and friends to escape the cruelty and injustice of Sultan Makatunaw, the ruler of Borneo. The ten datus were: Datu Puti (the leader), Datu Bangkaya, Datu Dumalugdog, Datu Sumakwel, Datu Lubay, Datu Paiburong, Datu Dumangsil, Datu Balensusa, Datu Paduhinog and Datu Dumangsol. They sailed on their balangays (vintas or boats) without knowing where to go. Finally they reached Panay Island. They bought the island from the chieftain of the Atis or Aetas who were then occupying the island. The chieftain's name was Marikudo and his wife was Maniwantiwan. Three of the datus decided not to settle in Panay but to sail northward. The three were: Datu Puti, Datu Balensusa and Datu Dumangsil. They settled in some parts of Luzon. When Sultan Makatunaw was no longer in power, Datu Puti returned to Borneo. The seven datus who stayed in Panay divided the island into three areas: Hamtik (now Antique), Irong-Irong (now Iloilo), and Aklan (now Aklan and Capiz). Hamtik was under Datu Sumakwel, Irong-Irong was under Datu Paiburong, and Aklan was under Datu Balangkaya.

Who is maniwantiwan?

The beginnings of Panay are shrouded in legend. It is said that ten Bornean datus, under Datu Puti, fled to Panay in search of freedom. There they entered a pact with the Ati chief, Datu Marikudo, to give to the new arrivals the coastal areas in exchange for a golden salakot (a type of hat) and a batya(wash basin). Datu Marikudo's wife, Maniwantiwan, acting shrewdly refused to accede unless the necklace of Datu Puti's wife, Pinangpangan, be given. The Atis agreed to vacate the coastal areas and moved to the mountains. The datus divided the land into Hamtik (Antique), Aklan (Capiz) and Irong-irong (Iloilo) to which Datu Paiburong is named leader. Panay it is said was ruled by two legal codes, the Maragtas, promulgated by Datu Sumakwel ca. 1225 and the Kalantiaw codified in Aklan in 1433.
