The legendary Battle of Manila in 1258 (Filipino: Labanan sa Maynila) is recounted in oral histories of the Tagalog people, as documented by Filipino historians Mariano Henson in the 1950s and Cesar Adib Majul in the 1950s. It is notable for marking one of the earliest proposed dates for the foundation of the pre-colonial polity at Maynila.<ref name="Majul1973"/>
According to these legends, a Bruneian naval commander named Rajah Ahmad, established pre-colonial Maynila as a Muslim principality in 1258 after defeating its commander, a Majapahit ruler named Anuj Avirjirkaya.<ref name="Henson1955"/>
