'''Adiangao''' is one of the coastal [[barangay]]s in [[San Jose, Camarines Sur|San Jose]], [[Camarines Sur]]. This barangay<ref name="MPDC Brief Profile of the Municipality of San Jose, Camarines Sur">{{cite journal|last1=LGU San Jose|first1=MPDC|title=Brief Profile of the Municipality of San Jose, Camarines Sur|date=2015}}</ref> has the potential in [[tourism]] because of a [[cave]] with underwater river hidden in a [[virgin forest]]. The annual fiesta celebration is on May 15. |
|||
==Etymology== |
|||
The word was derived from a tree called "dadiagnao" which was used by the people for lighting as torch, also as firewood. During the Spanish time, the Spaniards changed it to "Adiagnao" due to difficulty of utterance.<ref name="Nieva">{{cite book|last1=Nieva|first1=Lourdes Lobis|title=San Jose at its Great Serenity and Pride|date=February 2010|publisher=Local Government of San Jose|location=San Jose, Camarines Sur|edition=1st}}</ref> |
|||
==Historical account== |
|||
This barangay is controversial<ref name="Nieva"/> since it is geographically located in between the barangays of [[Maangas]] and [[Lagha]], both of [[Lagonoy, Camarines Sur|Lagonoy]] before, and now of [[Presentacion, Camarines Sur|Presentacion]]. Hence, it was then part of [[Lagonoy]] but its territorial jurisdiction was eventually transferred to [[San Jose, Camarines Sur|San Jose]] purposely to provide the then newly established town a forest where it can make use of the resources there such as [[rattan]] and firewood. It said that Adiangao was thick with "dadiagnao", a tree from which "salong" was taken. The people used this salong as lighting material or torch. |
|||
It was told by old folks that this barangay was a witness to [[Moro pirates|Moro]] raids which the people's settlement had been transferred more frequently from the different parts of the place due to these attacks. Now, the present settlement of the people is near the sea making [[fishing]] as the main source of [[livelihood]]. |
|||
