is a small barangay up in the mountains of Kalinga in Northern Philippines. It is a small and secluded community and can only be reached through narrow trails on steep mountain slopes. Buscalan is the homeland of the Tribe, once known as fierce headhunters among the Cordillera groups of people. But this practice has long been discontinued. It has recently gained tourism favors because of its respected elder Apo Whang-od who holds the recognition as the oldest and last surviving traditional Kalinga artist

APO is known as the last mambabatok (Kalinga tattooist) from the tribe of Butbut in Buscalan, . She has been tattooing for the past 80 years — including head hunters of the indigenous tribe, at the beginning of her long career.

The Igorot peoples are of Austronesian origin, having migrated to the Philippines from Southeast Asia thousands of years ago. They intermingled with the Astral-Melanesian population that had already inhabited the islands. Over time, they developed distinct languages, customs, and traditions, adapting to the unique environment of the Cordillera mountains.

The term "Igorot" itself is an exonym, meaning it was given to them by outsiders, specifically the Spanish colonizers. It comes from the Tagalog word "golot," meaning "mountain," and translates to "mountaineer". While the term is widely used, some Igorot groups prefer to use their own endonyms, such as Ifugao or Ibaloi, which they consider more accurate and respectful.

Cultural Diversity and Subgroups

The Igorot are not a single homogenous group; they are comprised of several distinct ethnolinguistic groups, each with its own unique language, customs, and traditions. Some of the major groups include:

- Bontoc: Found in the central and eastern portions of the Mountain Province, known for their distinctive body tattoos and traditional headhunting practices.
- Ibaloi: Primarily residing in southern Benguet, known for their rice cultivation and the pesh*t feast, a large public gathering involving animal sacrifices.
- Ifugao: Inhabiting Ifugao province, famous for their Banaue Rice Terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and their complex social structure divided into three classes: kadangyans (aristocrats), tagus (middle class), and na wotwots (poor).
- Kalanguya/Ikalahan: A smaller group distributed across the Sierra Madre, Caraballo Mountains, and the eastern Cordillera, known for their connection to the forest and their unique language.
- Isneg: Also known as Apayao, residing in the northwestern Cordillera, known for their say-am ceremony, a celebration after successful headhunting or other important events.
- Itneg/Tingguian: Found in the mountainous area of Abra, known for their social hierarchy based on wealth and their distinct subgroups.
- Kalinga: Primarily residing in Kalinga province, known for their budong peace pacts and their traditional dances, such as the muscle dance.

Traditional Practices and Beliefs

Despite their diversity, the Igorot share common cultural elements, including:

- Metalworking: They are skilled in working with iron and brass, creating tools, weapons, and ornaments.
- Weaving: They produce intricate textiles using traditional techniques, often incorporating symbolic patterns and designs.
- Animal Sacrifice: Animal sacrifices play a significant role in their rituals, often offered to ancestral spirits or deities.
- Animism: They believe in spirits, including those of ancestors, and have complex rituals to appease them.
- Rice Cultivation: Many groups are adept at rice farming, often utilizing terraced fields on the mountainsides, as seen in the iconic Banaue Rice Terraces.

Historical Context and Challenges

The Igorot have faced numerous challenges throughout their history, including:

- Spanish Colonization: The Spanish attempted to subdue and convert the Igorot to Christianity, often encountering resistance and conflict.
- American Hegemony: The United States continued the process of pacification and assimilation during their occupation of the Philippines, further impacting Igorot culture and traditions.
- Modernization and Development: The influx of Western influences, including logging, mining, and urbanization, has impacted their traditional way of life and their relationship with the environment.

Conclusion

The Igorot peoples are a vibrant and resilient group with a rich cultural heritage. Despite facing historical challenges and the pressures of modernization, they continue to maintain their unique identities and traditions, showcasing the enduring strength of their connection to their ancestral lands and their commitment to preserving their cultural legacy.
