The Chronicle of Pigafetta is important because we have learned all over the world
through this the various cultures, languages, traditions, religions, etc. Depending on the
Pigafetta chronicle, he stated that in every island there were kings who lead, he also
described the status of women when he went to Ladrone Island, He said the women
were pretty naked there, and some of them were wearing beards, and some had their
hair down to their waist. He explained how other individuals welcomed them with a
smile on their faces and showed them hospitality. The various products on each island
were also discovered. They notice and encounter the main men or chiefs in several
towns while they travel the world. Its leaders are Cilaton, Ciguibucan, Cimaniga,
Cimaticat, and Cicanbul in Cingapola. Mandani: Aponoaan is its chief. In Lalan, Teten is
