About this book

The Tinguian of northwestern Luzon, a people of the Philippines whose homeland includes the province of Abra, are described here by Fay-Cooper Cole, an assistant curator of Malayan ethnology, in a study dated 1922. Chapters follow the cycle of life from birth through marriage to funeral customs, then religion and magic, a long section on ceremonies, village government, hunting and fishing, rice growing, ironwork, weaving, pottery and decorative art. Albert Gale contributes the closing chapter on music. Plates and text figures show people, spirit houses, tools and instruments.
