| General Note |
- General note - The river''s mouth joining Butuan Bay and a monument to Magellan at right. This place, which became a municipality in 1971, is named Magallanes because of the local belief that the Portuguese explorer''s party landed there on its way to Cebu from Homonhon Island. The French traveller, Jean Mallat in his book "Les Iles Philippines" published in Paris in 1846, claimed that the first Mass was held there. A monument to commemorate the spot in Agusan was built up district Governor Jose Maria Carvallo in 1872. Today, with the coastline being eaten slowly by the sea, the monument how stands inside the campus of the elementary school of Magallanes.
