Climate

Type I has a dry season from November to April and a wet one for the rest of the year; Type II has no dry season, with the most rain from December to February; Type III has a short dry season; Type IV has rain spread through the year.More in the glossary

Type I^[37]

Two seasons: dry from November to April, wet for the rest of the year, with the heaviest rain from June to September.

Life & Economy

About 16 of every 100 people lived below the poverty line in 2021.

Poverty, 2021Poverty incidenceHow many of every 100 people live in families whose income is below the poverty line: what a person needs in a year for food and other basic needs, as the PSA sets it for each province. It is an estimate, from a survey or, for a town, a statistical model, so the PSA gives a range it is likely to fall in.More in the glossary: 16.2% of people^[23]Below the poverty line, by the PSA's estimate for every town.
Income classIncome classThe Department of Finance sorts provinces, cities and municipalities into classes by their average yearly income over recent years: 1st class has the most. It measures the local government's income, not how well off its people are.More in the glossary: 1st class^[4]

About 16 of every 100 people in Miagao lived below the poverty line in 2021 (16.2%)^[23]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 14.6% and 17.8%, with 90% confidence.

Western Visayas: ten datus, two rivers
Legend says ten Bornean datus bought Panay for a golden hat. Iloilo, Aklan and Antique tell the legend with two different landing rivers, and its best-known book was finished in 1904.

Spain called the Visayans the painted ones
Before they were called Visayans, Spain called them Pintados, for tattoos earned by bravery. Where the word Bisaya comes from, nobody knows for sure; a Bornean legend has its own answer.

How it got its name

Sources differMiagao's municipal profile says the name has several versions; one of the most popular is that it came from the plant Miagos (Osmoxylon lineare), which grew abundantly when the Spaniards arrived.^[10]

Sources differA native priest of Igbaras, Fr. Lorenzo Torres, is credited with a different version: the name derives from Miyagaw, an old Negrito, and the Spaniards mistook his name for that of the place.^[10]

Local traditionA third version is a legend of two young lovers, Maya and Gao.^[10]

Its story

Before it was a town, Miagao was a dependency of Oton, then Tigbauan, then Guimbal; the Spanish civil government made it an independent pueblo in 1716, probably for better tax collection, says its municipal profile.^[10]

Miagao's first capitan and teniente mayor, Nicolas Pangkug and Diego Sale, were elected at Guimbal, and the town had its own head from 1731.^[10]

The Augustinian mission became a parish in 1731 and a simple church and convento were built.^[11]

The largest recorded raid, on May 7, 1754, landed at Baybay Norte and was driven back by Miagaowanons led by a Spanish officer; the raiders returned at Damilisan and were repulsed again. The town marks it each February as the Salakayan Festival.^{[12, 13]}

The Puente de Boni, called the oldest Spanish bridge in Miagao, was built in 1854 under Gobernadorcillo Miguel Navales, and the steel Tumagbok Bridge was inaugurated in 1937 with President Manuel L. Quezon attending.^{[14, 15]}
