The Place of Calinog
With the arrival of the Spanish soldiers in the town, they find the place peaceful and the people are friendly. They ask the natives the equivalent of the Spanish word "Pacifico" in local dialect. They responded with the word "kalinong." The Spaniards have a difficulty in pronouncing the word so they shortened it to kalinog.
