The Katipunan (abbreviated to KKK) was a Philippine revolutionary society founded by anti-Spanish Filipinos in Manila in 1892, whose primary aim was to gain independence from Spain through revolution. The society was initiated by Filipino patriots Andrés Bonifacio, Teodoro Plata, Ladislao Diwa, and others on the night of July 7, when Filipino writer José Rizal was to be banished to Dapitan. Initially, the Katipunan was a secret organization until its discovery in 1896 that led to the outbreak of the Philippine Revolution. The Tagalog word ''"katipunan,"'' literally meaning 'association', comes from the root word ''"tipon''," a Tagalog word meaning "gather" or "society." Its official revolutionary name was Samahang Kataastaasan, Kagalanggalang Katipunan ng mga Anak ng Bayan〔 II(). :"Kailan at saan itinayo ang 'Samahang Kataas-taasang, Kagalang-galangang Katipunan ng̃ mg̃á Anak ng̃ Bayan? :((英語:"When and where was the Supreme and Most Honorable Society of the Sons of the Nation established?"))

The Katipunan is also known by its acronym, KKK. The organization has no affiliation with the white supremacist group known as the Ku Klux Klan who are also associated with the acronym "KKK". Being a secret organization, its members were subjected to the utmost secrecy and were expected to abide by the rules established by the society.〔 Aspirant applicants were given standard initiation rites to become members of the society. At first, membership in the Katipunan was only open to male Filipinos; later, women were accepted in the society. The Katipunan had its own publication, ''Kalayaan'' (Liberty) that had its first and last print in March 1896. Revolutionary ideals and works flourished within the society, and Philippine literature was expanded by some of its prominent members. In planning the revolution, Bonifacio contacted Rizal for his full-fledged support for the Katipunan in exchange for a promise to rescue Rizal from his detainment. In May 1896, a delegation was sent to the Emperor of Japan to solicit funds and military arms. The Katipunan's existence was revealed to the Spanish authorities after a member named Teodoro Patiño confessed the Katipunan's illegal activities to his sister, and finally to the mother portress of Mandaluyong Orphanage. Seven days after the Spanish authorities learned of the existence of the secret society, on August 26, 1896, Bonifacio and his men tore their ''cédulas'' during the infamous Cry of Pugadlawin that started the Philippine Revolution. ==Etymology== The name "''Katipunan''" comes from the full Tagalog name for the society: "''Kataastaasan Kagalang-galang Katipunan nang mga Anak nang Bayan''" (English: "''Highest and Most Respectable Society of the Children of the nation ''"). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Katipunan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
