the tondo conspiracy

The Conspiracy of the Maharlikas, also referred to as the Revolt of the Lakans or the Tondo Conspiracy of 1587-1588 was a plot against Spanish colonial rule by the Tagalog and Capampangan noblemen, or datus, of Manila and some towns of Bulacan and Pampanga, in the Philippines. It was led by Agustín de Legazpi, grandson of conquistador Miguel López de Legazpi, nephew of Rajah Lakandula, and his first cousin, Martin Pangan. The datus swore to rise up in arms by anointing their necks with a split egg. The uprising failed when they were betrayed to the Spanish authorities by Antonio Surabao (Susabau) of Calamianes.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspiracy_of_the_Maharlikas
