Namayan (Baybayin: or (Sapa)), also called Sapa,[6] Maysapan, and sometimes Lamayan,[7] was a Luzonian town[2]: 193 [8][9] that is now the Santa Ana district in Manila city proper along the Pasig River in the Philippines.
Namayan is believed to have achieved its peak in 1175,[10] and to have gone into decline sometime in the 13th century,[11] although it continued to be inhabited until the arrival of European colonizers in the 1570s.[2]
It was one of several towns on the Pasig River alongside Tondo, Manila, and Cainta.[2][3]
Archeological findings in Santa Ana have produced the oldest evidence of continuous habitation among the Pasig River polities, pre-dating artifacts found within the historical sites of Maynila and Tondo.[6][11][Notes 1]
