Battle of Mactan
A rival of Rajah Humabon from the neighboring island of Cebu, Lapu-Lapu had gained possession of an artifact left behind by the Isu. In April 1521, he used the artifact to lead his men to wage a resistance campaign against the Spanish expedition led by Ferdinand Magellan, who had come seeking the artifact. Lapu-Lapu and his men defeated the Spanish, with the chief personally killing Magellan himself.[2]
