	Igorot and moro National Reemergence: The Fabricated Philippine State.
		Igorot is a Tagalog word for "mountain people" and denotes the inhabitants of the mountains of central Luzon.
		While the Igorots lived in remote villages scattered throughout their mountain homeland, isolated from the larger world, the Moros resided in powerful Muslim states with cultural and trading contacts stretching from Arabia to China.
		Independence for the Igorots and the Moros is without historical validity since neither ever succeeded in establishing a unified state encompassing all of Moroland or the Mountain Province.

	Dog-eating and my culture
		Isican generalized that dog-eating is a part of Igorot tradition by recalling that in 1904 a few Igorot men and women were displayed at the Louisiana Purchase Exhibition ("world's fair") in St Louis, Missouri.
		It is a shame, and because Igorots are Filipinos, dog-eating is a Philippine national shame.
		Igorot families much preferred to avoid the circumstances which might lead them to sacrifice their dog.

		An Igorot obtained possession of one of the guns, and the Ilokano chief of police was killed and his corporal wounded.
		Again and again one is deceived by their height, and he repeatedly backs a 5-foot-7-inch Igorot up against a 6-foot American, vainly expecting the stature of the brown man to equal that of the white.

	Subordination and Resistences
		Echoing Brackette Williams, ethnicity, and in this case Igorot ethnicity, is a label of the subordinate, of the subaltern.
		Igorot resistances and the movement for autonomy were also the re-assertions of historical agency.
		In this paper, I have examined Igorot ethnicity in terms of subordination and resistances and have argued that awareness of this subordination and the resistances to this subordination, historical marginalization, minoritization, exploitation, and oppression have served as sources of cohesion.

	Sun.Star Baguio - Marky Cielo is Igorot icon?
		With their innate reserve by nature, the crowd did not become unruly as is usually the case in Metro Manila and the lowlands, but cheers and claps were noticeably louder and more people trooped to the gym when Cielo arrived at the venue compared with the arrival of Angara, the guest speaker.
		Cielo's statement that he is proud of being an Igorot that earned him the admiration and support of the entire Mountain Province, that even the governor, Maximo Dalog, gave an inter-office memorandum for the province's officialdom to text-vote for Cielo everyday.
		Along with the people of Mountain Province, Cielo, although admittedly only half Igorot as his father is from Iligan City, was treated with the rare opportunity of seeing the different tribes perform their traditional dances and chants in full regalia in one place.

	Dogtown -- Igorots at the World's Fair
		The head-hunting, dog-eating Igorots were the greatest attraction at the Philippine Exhibit, not only because of their novelty, the scanty dressing of the males and their daily dancing to the tom-tom beats, but also because of their appetite for dog meat which is a normal part of their diet.
		When the Igorots were at the Fair, their village was actually located in the city of Clayton next to Forest Park which belongs to the city of St. Louis.
		The people in the neighborhood near the Igorot Village were concerned, upset, and angered at times because of the disappearance of dogs in their neighborhood.

	[No title]
		The Igorot woman is a constant laborer from the age of puberty or before, until extreme incapacity of old age stays the hands of toil; but for two or three months following the advent of each babe the mother does not work in the fields.
		The Igorot loves all his children, and says, when a boy is born, "It is good," and if a girl is born he says it is equally "good" -- it is the fact of a child in the family that makes him happy.
		But in spite of these baths the Igorot babe, at least after it has reached the age of six or eight months, when seen in the pueblo is almost without exception very dirty; a child of a year or a year and a half is usually repulsively so.

	Subordination and Resistances: Ethnicity in the Highland Communities of the Cordillera Administrative Region, Northern ...
		For Finin, "self-conscious images of territorial and social oneness may over time emerge from the ways in which state planning and policies are imposed via administrative grids."4 He contends that American colonial policies, especially those of defining administrative grids or territorial boundaries, fostered the evolution of regional consciousness in the Cordilleras.
		Although the situation in the Cordilleras has been examined as resource competition between the highland communities that inhabit the area and the government of the Philippines, it is also a discourse on issues of subordination, resistances, and ethnicization.
		Nor are individuals equally empowered to opt out of the labeling process, to become the invisible against which others' visibility is measured."14 By subscribing to Igorot ethnicity, the highland communities attest to and orient themselves within the nation-state but at the margins of Philippine society.

	SurLaLune Fairy Tales: Philippine Folk Tales by Mabel Cook Cole
		THREE or four days' journey to the south and east of the Tinguian live the Igorot; but so difficult are the trails over the mountains and through the swift rivers that there is little intercourse between the two tribes, consequently each believes the other a people to be feared.
		From a distance an Igorot village looks like a group of haystacks nestling among the hills; but viewed more closely, it is found to consist of houses whose board sides are almost hidden by the overhanging grass roofs.
		Watching over the Igorot, controlling the winds and the rains, and providing good crops and health for the people, is the Great Spirit, Lumawig, who lives in the sky.

	The Ampersand \| essay by Robert C. Galloway
		The living descendants of those Igorots, who consist of five tribes from the mountains in the northern Philippines, are convinced (despite any potentially unannounced skepticism) that their ancestors were forced to perform their ritual dog feast daily.
		The Igorots also allegedly were denied sufficient winter clothing at the Fair for the sake of the scientific value in their appearing just as scantily clad as they did back in their highland home.
		The Igorots of the 1904 World's Fair days were most often labeled by the newspapers of the day as "head hunters." The tribes who traveled half the globe to the Fair on the same boat and train had allegedly left a constant state of intertribal rivalry and feuding for each other's heads.
