Laguna has been investigated multiple times by several archeological teams and has yielded several finds. Henry Otley Beyer had studied the shores of Laguna de Bay, particularly near the northern regions of Rizal and Manila. In his Outline Review of Philippine Archaeology by Islands and Provinces, he also made mention of the archeological potential of the eastern shores of the lake in which Pila lies. He pointed out that "it should turn out to be one of the most important centers of trade as well as of culture during the early part of the present millennium" for its strategic location. (en)
