Luis Cámara Dery says that by the time De Goiti arrived in 1570, Rajah Matanda had already ceded authority to his nephew and heir apparent, Rajah Sulayman, while still retaining considerable influence. [1] According to William Henry Scott, however, Rajah Sulayman was not proclaimed paramount ruler until Rajah Matanda's death in 1572. [2]
Sulayman, sometimes referred to as Sulayman III (Arabic script: سليمان, Abecedario: Solimán) (d. 1590s), [1] was a Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Luzon in the 16th century and was a nephew of Rajah Ache of Luzon. He was the commander of the Tagalog forces in the battle of Manila of 1570 against Spanish forces.
Rajah Matanda (whose real name was recorded by the Legaspi expedition as Ache) and his nephew, Rajah Sulayman "Rajah Mura" or "Rajah Muda" (a Sanskrit title for a Prince), ruled the Muslim communities south of the Pasig River, including Maynila while Lakandula ruled non-Muslim Tondo north of the river.
A Kapampangan leader of the Macabebe polity, later identified as Tarik Sulayman (from Arabic طارق سليمان Tāriq Sulaiman), refused to submit to the Spaniards and, after failing to gain the support of the kings of Manila (Lakandula, Matanda) and Hagonoy, Bulacan, gathered a formidable force composed of Kapampangan warriors.
The Lakandula and Sulayman Revolt, also known as the Tagalog Revolt, was an uprising in 1574 by Lakandula and Rajah Sulayman in Tondo, Manila. The revolt occurred in the same year as the Chinese pirate Limahong attacked the palisaded yet poorly defended enclosure of Intramuros. Their revolt failed with fatal injuries and deaths.
When these barangays banded together, either to form a larger settlement [6] or a geographically looser alliance group, [7] the more esteemed among them would be recognized as a "paramount datu", [6] [18] rajah, or sultan [19] which headed the community state. [20]
There, they defeated most of Rajah Sulayman's, Rajah Matanda, and Rajah Lakandula's tribes. The Spaniards marched their armies towards the Pasig River, and occupied the settlements in Manila on 6 June, 1570 and burned them. Guerrilla warfare broke out following the battle, which continued for about ten months.
