The | Limaong is one of the 98 Barangays of Zamboanga City located in the east coast. Accordingly, there are no written records how it got its name. The legend was only passed down as a folk tale from generation to generation. It goes this way…. | ||
There were strangers who happened to pass this island and were riding on a sailing vinta in search for water. While on their way, these strangers met a strange beast and they were attacked by this beast. Fortunately, two of the strangers were able to kill the beast. | |||
Reaching the island, the strangers asked the natives the name of the island. The strangers and the natives spoke different dialects. When asked, the native answered Limao, thinking that the strangers were asking for the name of the beast. No further explanation as to why N and G were added to the word Limao, thus, resulting to Limaong as what it is known today. | |||
