A city in the Southern Philippine island of Mindanao is named Cotabato.
During the Spanish period, there is a stronghold in this area with walls, ramparts, and towers made of rock. The natives refer to it as Kuta Bato or stone fortress. The name stuck and was "modernized" substituting "K" with a "C" that lead to the birth of Cotabato.
