==History of Sasmuan, Pampanga, Philippines==
==History of Sasmuan (Sexmoan), Pampanga, Philippines==
The town's former name of "Sexmoan" was how it was spelled in Spanish by friars with "X" pronounced as "KS" as in mexico attempting to transcribe "Sasmuan", the original and current name. It was derived from the ancient Kapampangan rootwordsasmo, which means to meet, according to a 17th century Kapampangan dictionary.Sasmoan therefore is synonymous with "pitagmuan" or "meeting place of the datus". It was named "Sasmuan" because it is where the Pampangos meet when they were at war with the Chinese in Guagua.
