Tallano gold (sometimes called as Marcos Gold for some unkown reasons) refers to a set of interrelated popular conspiracy theories in the Philippines that supposedly state that before Spain colonized the Philippines (Approximately 501 years ago), the archipelago nation of the Philippines and surrounding territories were ruled by the Tagean Tallano family (the rulers of so-called Maharlika kingdom, composed of the island nations of Philippines, Borneo, Some parts of Malaysia and Indonesia, and the Pacific Islands), that the family owned a vast amount of gold, and that the former dictator president Ferdinand Marcos obtained his family's unexplained wealth by receiving some of the Tallano gold as payment for legal services. However, this theory was debunked several times due to lack of evidence. But still, many Filipinos belief this theory as true.
