"Europeans were so scared of the Kali men that they banned the practice of the arts and would kill them if they were caught!"
Funny is it not that they were under the Boot of the Spanish, that they would be put to death by the Spanish, which is strange if they were better at fighting then the Spanish. And yet you now admit that Kali has a lot of Spanish fighting arts in it. There's a reason that the Spanish ruled, they simply out classed them.
@Bulllseye2012 No sir, I never once said that Kali did not have spanish influence, it does, and ALOT of it!! My only point was that the Filipino's were fighting with Blades long before the spanish ever showed up! This is a FACT that is easy to find on GOOGLE!
I hate to disagree with mr. Balicki as I hold him in the utmost regards. But the traditional salute as used in the militairy derives from the feudal ages when knights used to open their visor to show their faces as a token of respect.
Museum and archaeological institute to open as part of 'Year of Japan' in Turkey
"The Kaman Kalehoyuk Archaeological Museum and the Japanese Institute of Anatolian Archaeology will be inaugurated on Friday in Kaman town in Kırsehir province."
"In 2005 samples from the mound, what may be the oldest steel fragments in the world dating back to 1800 B.C., were announced by a Japanese expert."
"Best preserved of all the corpses is Yingpan Man, known as the Handsome Man, a 2,000-year-old Caucasian mummy discovered in 1995. He had a gold foil death mask - a Greek tradition - covering his blond, bearded face, and wore elaborate golden embroidered red and maroon wool garments with images of fighting Greeks or Romans."
"Even older than the Cherchen find is that of the 4,000-year-old Loulan Beauty, who has long flowing fair hair and is one of a number of mummies discovered near the town of Loulan."
"The Loulan Beauty, for example, was claimed by the Uighurs as their symbol in song and image, although genetic testing now shows that she was in fact European."
"At their peak, around 300BC, the influence of the Celts stretched from Ireland in the west to the south of Spain and across to Italy's Po Valley, and probably extended to parts of Poland and Ukraine and the central plain of Turkey in the east. These mummies seem to suggest, however, that the Celts penetrated well into central Asia, nearly making it as far as Tibet."

If your of European extraction then you alto, stop knocking the heritage of your forefathers,
And stop buying into the hyperboles of others . 49 men fought off over a 1000 men on that beach in 1521.
