[edit]This section contains four paragraphs, the final three paragraphs having been added in a series of edits by an anon. Those three paragraphs contain only one cite, and appear to provide mostly unsupported editorial analysis. I haven't deleted the material, but it doesn't look to me as if it's appropriate for a WP article. Also, unless I'm misunderstanding something, the Walter Scott mentioned in that material should refer to William Henry Scott.

Thank you for editing the section. I only have one objection: the giving of more credit to the American anthropologist Beyer's theory of the existednce of a document called "Margitas", which was also cited by Scott. Many times foreign writers and scholars (including those who came with the early Spanish explorers and conquistadores, often misunderstood or wrongly interpreted the words they heard from natives of the Philippine Islands. It is possible that what the Beyer refered to as "Margitas" was actually the same "Maragtas" that Monteclaro tried to put into writing. Rather than just simply underlining the American Anthropologist's theory as if it is the absolute truth, it might be better to also include a good hermeneutics about the work of the native "Monteclaro" who was writing about what he received from older folks of his province regarding their local history.
Also, it is good to cite how and where Beyer obtained the data in arriving to such conclusion. "Margitas" is non existent in Ilonngo vocabulary. While "maragtas" is an Ilonggo word for history.--94.83.253.145 (talk) 04:54, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- My edit was a couple of months ago, and I don't recall the specifics. I'm not an expert on the topic and probably made that edit in passing thinking that the issue was simpler than an expert would think it. If I've made an error or an oversimplification, please feel free to correct that. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 07:19, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
