March
8, 2004 -- Capitol University launches the book "A Cagayan
de Oro Ethnohistory Reader" today. Written by Antonio
J. Montalvan II, and edited by Maria Soledad N. Fortich,
the book narrates the development of the city from prehispanic
period to 1950.
Montalvan says
the book is intended primarily for high school and college
students. It is a simplified version of his masteral thesis
when he took up anthropology at Xavier University. It includes
a description of Huluga -- the ancestral home of the people
of Cagayan de Oro and vicinities. |
