    TRIBE
    GROUP 2
    ILONGOT
    • Presently known as
    Bugkalot
    • Native on the east side of
    Luzon in the Philippines,
    primarily in the provinces
    of Nueva Viscaya and
    Nueva Ecija and along the
    boarder between
    provinces of Quirino and
    Aurora
    •They were formerly known as
    headhunters
    •Their native language is the
    Bugkalot language but they also
    speak Ilocano and Tagalog
    languages
    ILONGOT’S
    TRADITIONAL
    CLOTHING
    Traditional Ilongot clothing consists of
    lengths of bark pounded to the consistency
    of soft leather. Men wear a length of cloth
    passed between the legs and secured with
    a belt of rattan or brass wire. Women wear
    a short sarong (waist to knees) along with
    earrings, bead necklaces, and brass wire
    spiraling over the arms. Children go naked.
    • Religion
    Ilongot recognize a range of supernatural
    beings including a creator-overseer deity
    associated with the sun, as well as ancestral
    spirits. They are most concerned, however,
    with nature spirits and illness-giving spirits.
    The most powerful and feared is 'Agimeng,
    the "companion of the forest."
    Ilongot society has
    been described as
    an ordered anarchy
    where all persons
    are equal and
    recognize no
    authority figures.
    ILONGOT’S
    COURTSHIP
    DANCE
    TAGEM
    The tagem, or post-head-taking dance,
    is still executed according to custom.
    While the women play the kolesing
    (bamboo zithers), counterpointed by
    the sticks and the litlit (guitar with
    human hair strings), the men dance
    with their weapons, moving in a
    vigorous and trancelike manner.
    • FOOD
    The staple food is rice eaten with vegetables
    (root crops are a secondary source of starch).
    Wild plants, such as fruits, ferns, and hearts of
    palm, are also gathered for food.
    For animal protein, Ilongot eat wild pigs, deer,
    and fish but do not eat the meat of the pigs and
    chickens that they raise for sale to lowlanders;
    domestic animals are said to eat excrement and
    thus should not be consumed. Essential to
    • Young Men are trained for fighting,
    hunting, dancing, singing, playing of
    instruments and accessories making.
    • Young women are trained in
    housekeeping, plant cultivating,
    singing, dancing, playing instruments,
    weaving, and making attires and
    accessories.
    • Ilongot cultivate dry-rice, maize, and
    cassava side by side on swidden
    fields. After the harvest, they plant
    such fields with tobacco and
    vegetables. 
    • Ilongot make basi, alcohol from
    sugarcane, and the men often get
    together to have drinking sessions.
    •Musical instruments include the
    bamboo flute, brass gongs, a
    bamboo-tube zither, and a kind
    of violin with a body of bark and
    animal skin and strings of
    women's hair.
    In the old days,the Ilongot isolation has
    meant that modern education has not
    reached them as it has most other
    Filipinos, lowlanders, and highlanders,
    Christian and non-Christian alike,
    although Protestant missions are
    offering some Ilongot exposure to it.
