History

The town was named after the "malaniug" trees which grew in abundance during the
early years.
Camalaniugan was founded on June 15, 1596, a rather early date because of its
proximity to Nueva Segovia (Lallo). San Jacinto de Polonia was selected as their
patron saint. The early settlers were the Ybanags and Ilocanos, both peace-loving
citizens. They built their houses along the banks of the Cagayan River. They brought
with them their knowledge of farming and skills in making weapons. According to the
story related by the elders, among these "happy" settlers was Guiab, a famous
strongman and leader of Camalaniugan. He did not like the missionaries. Because of
this, he was arrested and later hanged from a malaniug tree by order of Juan Pablo
Carreon. For years the people suffered injustice.
Between the year 1887-1888, Fray Marcelino Cascos, O.P., built a convent. It was in
this convent where Col. Daniel Tirona billeted his men after arresting the missionaries
when he occupied the town in 1898.
It is in this town where the oldest Christian bell in the Far East is located. It is also the
birthplace of Don Vicente Nepomuceno, author of the history book "Historia Nac
Cagayan" which is written in Ybanag.
The town has a church dedicated to San Jacinto or Saint Hyacinth which houses the
oldest church bell (Sancta Maria, 1595) in the Far East.
