The Kartilya ng Katipunan (English: Primer of the Katipunan[1]) served as the guidebook for new members of the organization, which laid out the group's rules and principles. The first edition of the Kartilya was written by Gomez later wrote a revised Decalogue. The Decalogue, originally titled Katungkulang Gagawin ng mga Z. Ll. B.[2][3] (Duties of the Sons of the People), was never published because Bonifacio believed that Jacinto's Kartilya was superior to what he had made.
