BABAK DISTRICT

HISTORY OF BABAK

In this isolated unnamed coastal

area, there abound green leafy shrubs
called “Tagbak” which were used by the
natives into making baskets and containers
for their fish catch, food and other things.
The place had been the source of “Tagbak”
the main materials for their native
handicrafts.

On another account, there was in

the said place, a tree which the natives
called “Bakbak” which used to be the
landmark of the place.

2|SAM AL I S LA N D C I T Y C OLL E G E ( SA M A 1 )
 The place then, having been made the center of tribal economic business activities and
commercial intercourses, the name “Babak” in short was born and became known to be the natives
trading center in the island. Babak grew and developed into a native community out of the centuryold
native tradition, old fashioned agricultural farming and antiquated methods of fishing.

HISTORY OF KAPUTIAN

laws passed under “Republic Act No. 4754” that dubbed
the creation of the municipality of Kaputian and
separating it from the mother municipality for the

16 | S A M A L I S L A N D C I T Y C O L L E G E ( S A M A 1 )
purpose. The mandate includes the islets of Malipano and Talicud Island. Under Executive order
184, Kaputian was legally declared as another municipality of Davao Province.
Kaputian derived its name from the “White Sand” in local dialect “Putting Balas” is
significantly true to the shoreline of the place that occupies the southern part of the Samal Island
long before ruled by Datu Budas.
