Datu

Datu

Datu or datto is the title for the head of a clan or king in the Philippines before it was colonized by Spain. This title is still used by their descendants in the Philippines. The word datu can be referenced comes from the manuscript Batu Batu Ensemble manuscript in Palembang, where in the 11th row there is a word of the god that is interpreted the same as the palace or palace which is the same meaning as the king's palace, so the rhythm is the same as the datu region. So the datu means the same as the King. Furthermore, this datu changed the narrative into "grandfather", a title still used in Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia. The myth of the arrival of 10 datu from Borneo is celebrated every year at Binirayan Celebration on Panay Island, which was known as "Aninipay". Datu atau datto ialah gelaran untuk ketua sesuatu puak atau raja di Filipina sebelum ia dijajah oleh Sepanyol. Gelaran ini masih digunakan oleh keturunan mereka di Filipina. Perkataan datu dapat dirujuk berasal dari manuskrip Batu Bersurat Telaga Batu di Palembang, dimana pada baris ke-11 terdapat kata kedatuan yang ditafsirkan sama dengan kedaton atau keraton yang bermakna sama dengan istana raja, jadi kedatuan sama dengan wilayah datu. Sehingga datu maknanya sama dengan Raja. Selanjutnya kata datu ini berubah penuturan menjadi "datuk", suatu gelaran yang masih digunakan di Malaysia, Brunei dan Indonesia. Mitos kedatangan 10 orang datu dari Borneo diraikan setiap tahun di Perayaan Binirayan di Pulau Panay, yang pada zaman silam dikenali sebagai "Aninipay".
