History

Aerial view of Ivana, 1937

Ivana is one of the three major pueblos of Batanes in the first half of the 19th century, alongside Basco and Marigatao.[6] A mission was opened in the late 18th century with evangelization described as successful mainly due to the baptism of seven of the nine principals of Ivana.[7]

In 1789, Joaquin del Castillo became the third governor of Batanes and tried to strengthen his authority in the province. An uprising ensued led by a certain Chivunao, who persuaded his chiefs to rebel against the government. This culminated in a battle in Itbud where the Spaniards' cannons forced the rebels to surrender.[7]
