Scope and Contents note

From the Series:

This series consists of photographs related to the Indigenous group referred to by Dean Worcester as “Benguet Igorots.” However, the preferred names for the three major ethnolinguistic groups in the area are the “Ibaloi” in the southeast, the “Kankaneay” in the northwest, or the “Kalanguya” mostly in the northeast. “Igorot” is an exonym used to refer to the various ethnic groups who inhabit the mountains of northern Luzon, and is considered slightly pejorative. “Ifugao” is the endonym to refer to these groups as a whole. The photographs in this series were obtained in the Province of Benguet. For further information on this series consult Index to Philippine photographs (Ayer 290 .A983 1905).
