Basi Revolt Paintings by: Esteban Pichay Villanueva National Museum, Vigan City, Ilocos Sur 1807 The painting depicts the Basi Revolt, also known as the Ambaristo Revolt, which was a revolt undertaken from September 16 to 28, 1807. It was led by Pedro Mateo and Salarogo Ambaristo (though some sources refer to a single person named Pedro Ambaristo), with its events occurring in the present-day town of Piddig in Ilocos Norte. This revolt is unique as it revolves around the Ilocanos' love for basi, or sugarcane wine. In 1786, the Spanish colonial government expropriated the manufacture and sale of basi, effectively banning private manufacture of the wine, which was done before expropriation. Ilocanos were forced to buy from government stores. However, wine-loving Ilocanos in Piddig rose in revolt on September 16, 1807, with the revolt spreading to nearby towns and with fighting lasting for weeks. Spanish led troops eventually quelled the revolt on September 28, 1807, albeit with much force and loss of life on the losing side. The series of 14 paintings on the Basi Revolt by Esteban Pichay Villanueva currently hangs at the Ilocos Sur National Museum in Vigan City.

The Hudhud comprises more than 200 chants. Each chant is divided up into 40 episodes. A complete recitation may last several days. Since the Ifugao's culture is matrimonial. Within the community, the wife generally takes the main part in the chants. If the wife has a brother, then the brother occupies a higher position than her husband.

Parish of Nuestra Senora de Candelaria Silang, Cavite 1595 The first church in Silang was made of nipa and bamboo in 1585. The second one was made of wood, bigger than the first. This was ravaged by fire on August 30, 1603. The succeeding stone church, which is still existing at present, was built under the administration of the Jesuit, Juan de Salazar. The construction might have been done between 1637 and 1639, when Salazar was the provincial. The materials used were stone, gravel and sand from the river at the back of the church, together with various kinds of woods found in the nearby forests. The rafters in the ceiling were made of banaba; the roofs and ceilings, of bancal; and the joists, of yakal or ipil.  Labor was provided through polo y servicios, wherein males were forced to work for a particular number of days in a year. Women and children also helped in hauling baskets of soil as landfill.

The church was probably completed before 1643, since a story, reported by Fray Murillo Velarde, tells the image of the Virgin Mary was brought to the church after an indio left on a journey on Jan. 30, 1943, forgetting a vow to keep Fridays sacred. The church was depicted as “muy grande para un pueblo mas grande” when it was finished. A document done during the visitation of parishes in 1695 states that it was “all of stone, covered with tile and is in good condition.” The exquisite retablo mayor and two retablo menores were dated by an eminent Jesuit scholar at around 1663 and considered a fine example of Philippine baroque and ecclesiastical art.

The inventory of 1781 showed that it was made of cut stone and wood, roofed with tiles, and adorned with transept and octagonal belltower. In 1786, woodworks were infested by termites; hence, parts of the roof were covered with nipa, instead of tiles. In 1806, the pulpit was gilded, the main retablo refurbished, the bases of side altars replaced with stones, the altar to the Holy Cross constructed, silver vessels procured, and images of saint and furniture restored. In 1880, however, an earthquake caused considerable damage, including the destruction of the tower’s highest story, which was restored only in 1989. In the 1950s, the faux vault was replaced by a flat ceiling a meter or so lower than the original ceiling line, because early on a fire had ruined the vault. 

It is the oldest extant church structure in the province of Cavite as its contemporaries went through the ravages of war and disaster. Declared as a National Cultural Treasure through Museum Declaration No. 20-2016.

Basilica del Santo Niño and Convent Cebu City 18th century On February 29, 1735, Father Provincial Bergaño, Governor-General Fernando Valdes, Bishop Manuel Antonio Decio y Ocampo of Cebu and Fray Juan de Albarran, O.S.A. started the foundations of the present church, using stone. Since the friars did not have the means to complete the church, they enlisted the help of the parishioners of Opon and San Nicolas to contribute materials, while the people of Talisay contributed labor. The lack of chief craftsmen and officers forced Fray Albarran to acquire some knowledge of architecture.

The church was finished around 1739.

On January 16, 1740, the miraculous image was enthroned in the new Augustinian church.

In 1789, the church underwent a renovation. In 1889, Fray Mateo Diez, O.S.A. did another renovation. The original features of the church have been retained except for the windows which he added.

In the 1960s, both church and convent underwent a bigger restoration on the occasion of the Fourth Centennial of the Christianization of the country. The face lifting was made with utmost respect for the historical character of the old structure.

In 1965, Ildebrando Cardinal Antoniutti, Papal Legate to the Philippines, conferred the church the honorific title Basílica Menor upon the authority of Pope Paul VI. As a Minor Basilica, it is given precedence over other churches and other privileges. Philippine President Ferdinand E. Marcos also declared it a National Landmark.

The Basilica del Santo Niño remains under the care of the Augustinian Friars.
