BATAC CITY...THE PLACE WHERE I BELONG!

Every single Town , Province or City has its own origin of its names...

I am happy to share with you a brief History where my Beloved hometown unique name came from...

Batac has an interesting colloquial origin of its name.

The word "Batac" in a local dialect translates as "pull". More loosely, it refers to "the people's pulling their efforts together."




According to a legend, set in pre-settlement Batac, a man fell into a deep hole while he was digging for the root crop "camangeg".

He struggled to get out but could not despite his best efforts. He cried for help but nobody was around. He waited for hours and had given up hope of being saved.

Fortunately, two men from the neighboring town of Paoay happened to pass by. They heard the man shouting and traced it to where he was trapped. Upon seeing him, they heared the man said "Bataquennac! Bataquennac!"

The two men did not understand until the man explained that he was saying, "Pull me up! Pull me up!" They did just that.

When the two men reached their hometown, they told their story to their friends. Since then, the town has been called "Batac," which is derived from the word "bataquennac".......


That's all for now folks...more about my beloved Hometown for the next succeeding Post..
