The first markets were probably organized wherever there were surplus goods, in rice paddies, on river banks and shorelines, or the back yards. When the Spaniards came, markets began to have permanent places, usually near the plaza where the villagers converged for Sunday mass. A much more permanent arrangement came with the Americans, particularly in 1913 during the term of Francis Burton Harrison, when a loaning system was devised to construct municipal marketsImage type: Reproduction: PhotographMedia format: With prints
