During Magellan's voyage, he was able to befriend Rajah Humabon of Cebu. In gratitude to his hospitality, he showed him and his men some of his merchant goods including these five particular spices which is now part of BAON's collection.
Oh what happened after that?
According to historical accounts, Rajah Humabon was among the first indigenous converts to Catholicism after he, his wives, and his subjects were baptised by the expedition's priest.
On 14 April 1521, Humabon was christened Carlos in honour of King Charles I of Spain, while his chief consort, Hara Humamay was given the name Juana, after Charles' mother, Joanna of Castille. He also made a blood compact with Magellan, as a sign of friendship; according to Pigafetta, it was Humabon who had requested Magellan to kill his rival, Lapu Lapu the Datu or chieftain of nearby Mactan.
After the death of Magellan at the Battle and the consequent failure of the Spanish to defeat Lapu Lapu, Humabon and his warriors plotted to poison the remaining Spanish soldiers in Cebu during a feast. Several men were killed including then-leaders of the expedition, Barbosa and Serrao.
According to the chronicler Pigafetta, Serrao, begging to be saved from the Cebuano tribesmen, allegedly referred to Enrique (Magellan's slave) as having instigated the massacre by claiming to Humabon that the Europeans planned to take over the rajahnate.
