Brief History of Piat Just like most of the municipalities of the country, Piat was created into municipality during the Spanish Regime. The first Spanish missionaries who came to the province found out that the existing settlements were sporadically distributed along the Chico River. The Rio Chico flows down the province through flats and foothills and finally meets the Cagayan River in the Nassiping area. The people living on these flats and foothills are known as Itawes. The Itawes region formed the second part of Cagayan, and included the towns of Lobo (Tabang), Piat, Tuao, Malaueg and Sta. Cruz de Gumpat (Lingay). In 1603, the orders of the Alkalde Mayor Juan Clavijo were so oppressive that the natives rose up in revolt in the Itawes and the Yrraya regions. Bishop Benavides wrote up the king of Spain about these abuses of the encomienderos and Spanish officials. During the time of Bishop Diego de Soria, the King of Spain ordered him to make arrangements with the Dominicans for the pacification, and ultimately the conversion of these Itawes tribes. Accordingly, three friars were sent in 1603 to the estuary of Lobo (Rio Chico or Bangag). In 1591 there was an encomienda here consisting of 4,000 tributes (families) with a population of 16,000. In 1598 the Dominican Chronicle mentioned the mission of Lobo which was accepted ecclesiastically on May 9, 1604 and was later called Tabang. This was the first mission in the Itawes area. The second mission built by the Dominicans in the Itawes was Piat, originally called "Pia". According to Fr. Malumbres there were encomiendas here before the coming of the friars. The encomienderos were Don Pedro Barrada, an army officer; Don Juan de Aranda and Dona Isabel de Cardona in the year 1617. The first mass was said on August 24, 1604 when there were already about 1,000 families. It became an ecclesiastical town on May 1, 1610 under the patronage of Sto. Domingo de Guzman. A convent and a church was put up in 1740 by Fray Francisco Jimenez but was burnt in 1865 and reconstructed by Fr. Gurumeta, and the roofing with iron sheets was done by Fr. Isidro Rodriguez. It is said that Piat got its name probably from the word “Apiyyat” (meaning Massage) as the predominant art of healing during those times and from the native word “Pia” which means goodness, usefulness, good health or pleasant looks. It is definite; however, that the old name of the town is Pias as this name is engraved in the old bells of Sto. Domingo Church. The name Pias, however, was changed to Piat because the Itawes dialect has a penchant of converting s at the end of words to t for instance: Dios to Diot, Lunes to Lunit, Martes to Martit and consequently Pias to Piat. The image of Our Lady of Piat was sculptured in Macao and brought to Nueva Segovia by Bishop Diego de Soria in 1604. In the pacification and conversion campaign of the Itawes, it was decided to bring the image to Sto. Domingo church in Piat. Before long the people saw manifestations of divine favors through Our Lady, and devotion and attachment to her image bordered fanaticism. This can be gleamed from the fact that when Fr. Juan de Santa Ana took the image to Tuguegarao, the people of Piat protested and would not accept a replica of it in return even though how beautiful. Because of threats and fear of revolt, the original image was brought back to Piat, but because the people of Tuao were also clamoring for it, it was decided that the image will be placed in a chapel located between Piat and Tuao. Because of frequent inundations of the Rio Chico that caused so much damages to crops and properties. It was decided to build a sanctuary on a hilltop, half mile from the church of Sto. Domingo. The sanctuary was built and completed in 1623. …And what’s all about the Miraculous Lady in the hill??? Nuestra Señora Visitacion de Piat is the Miraculous Lady on the Hill to whom the Christianity of Piat is greatly attributed. It is because of her that Piat has achieved renown and recognition. Balikbayans and tourists always include the Shrine of Our Lady of Piat in their itinerary; no official visitor is considered sufficiently entertained unless he is taken to Piat at anytime of the year. It is recalled in history how initially the natives of Piat showed indifference and resistance to the new religion; how they had taken part in an uprising which they thought would wipe out the way of life being introduced to them. But Spanish reaction did not go the other way. To win these warlike Twits to Christ, the Dominicans brought the image from Macao to Piat. According to the Ybanag history by Fr. Julian Malumbres, the image of the Virgin was carved by a sculptor in Macao and was brought to Cagayan by Bishop Diego de Soria in 1601. Today, this Miraculous lady has made Piat a Pilgrimage Center where thousands of devotees flock during the year. In recent years, foot pilgrimages have been organized through the encouragement of Rev. Fr. Joseph, a Polish who served as a parish priest in Abulug, Cagayan. The people from Abulug, Sanchez Mira, Claveria, Pamplona, Aparri and other towns from the second district of Cagayan, adapting this tradition from this priest would always find time to visit the Virgin of Piat on a “foot pilgrimage.” The original people were the Ytawits or Itawes. They were governed by council of leaders called “Kamaranan”. The natives were divided into warring factions. One such faction was the Zambali tribe, a fierce and war-like people who were feared by the Spaniards. II. ADMINISTRATIVE UPDATE A.
