The description of present-day Limasawa does not fit the geologic, geographic, geomorphologic, archaeologic, histriographic categories of Mazaua as described and explained in the eyewitness chronicles of Antonio Pigafetta, Ginés de Mafra, Francisco Albo, The Genoese Pilot, Martín de Ayamonte, as well as the secondhand accounts of Antonio de Brito, Andrés de San Martín, Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas, and Maximilianus Transylvanus.
The scholar Antonio Pigafetta may have been the first to document the creature.

Italian historian Antonio Pigafetta, who wrote the most comprehensive account of Magellan's voyage, named him "Henrique" (which was Hispanicized Enrique in official Spanish documents).
In 1789, Augustinian Carlo Amoretti, Italian Encyclopedist and librarian of Biblioteca Ambrosiana in Milan, discovered the authentic Italian manuscript of Antonio Pigafetta among the scattered holdings of the library.
The precise story, as told by Antonio Pigafetta and the other witnesses, is the fleet had anchored at a tiny—about 3,930 hectares according to Ginés de Mafra--island-port named Mazaua which The Genoese Pilot said was at latitude 9° north, locating the skerry in Mindanao.
