CAGSAWA RUINS

Originally, the word was �Kagsawa�. It was derived from Kag, �who does or owner� and SAWA, meaning � a python� which suggested �one who collects snake� or perhaps �a snake charmer,� On its worst, it signifies �excesses� from SAWA (pronounced in �maragsa� on the last syllable) meaning �too much.�  Fr. Francisco Aragonesses, OFM, former curate of Kagsawa and Budyaw, seemed to confirm the notable �overindulgence� of the people during the time.
