If you really do some digging you'll find that our filipino people are related to the moors of africa. In fact that is how islam came to the filipines. At one point most of the filipines were muslims. We had saltans and everything. We called our selves moros (meaning moors) i tell my filipino friends this all the time. Even look at our swords, there is one that closely resemble middle eastern swords. The moros lead many revolts against the spaniards. th-cam.com/video/IPFrI_KMWwE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/-9zdLBNf8HE/w-d-xo.html Lets help them know everything.
My wife is a very proud Igorot, we met each other and got married in Dubai where she was working as a nurse. She is very proud of her heritage, and I am too. Her family is very close to each other and they are wonderful people. That always can’t be said for other places in the Philippines. I am very fortunate to have met her, she is a wonderful wife and my best friend.
not only Igorot people.. most tribes in the Philippines are equal.. most indigenous people in the Philippines especially in Mindanao Region are same culture with Igorot people.
As a lowlander, I see Igorots as brave warriors with society that stood time. It is the governments duty to re educate the entire Country as well as to teach us to embrace and enrich our culture.
Meanwhile here in the US , Filipino Americans (specially the youth) are very curious about pre-hispanic culture of the Philippines. Cordillera tattoo and baybayin script has been adopted and popularize in recent years here. Many agree that the reason for this is Filipino diaspora are looking for a connection back to their heritage.
Kabayan, I shared your videos in Face Book, I also hate discrimination against Igorots, my Mother's Ancestors are also Igorots. I hope that discriminatory literature in the books of the Department of Education should be revise, And remove/delete the false informations. For the benefits of all concern, especially the New Generation of Filipinos. Truly small light can lead us to the righteous path, even if we travel a lightyears away. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing this information, I did learn a lot about our own history. And it made me even more proud of who I am, a full-blooded Igorot! Cheers to more knowledge and information about Igorot history and culture. Matago-tago kayo!
I have known igorot in other places. They are hard working and do not follow the usual culture of common Filipinos. What I noticed about them is their beautiful faces that make them unique in all ethnic groups in the archipelago.
I am a proud FBI(full blooded Igorot).We are smart people and loyal.I am now living in Canada and when I introduce myself to other Filipinos I tell them that I am Igorot to educate them who we really are and not what the misconceptions are.Proud Ibaloi!
Thank you for your interesting videos on Igorots and Ilocanos I am a Singaporean Chinese. My partner is part Igorot ( Father) part Ilocano-Mestizo. (Mother). Although we live in Singapore we do go back to Baguio for visits. I have always been telling her and her whole family to be proud that they are Igorot. Not to feel ashamed. And to just ignore Tagalog looking down on them.
Hi there Mr. Ng Tiankhean.Nice to read your message.Ofcourse as an igorot, we feel bad when our filipino brothers who are not an igorot tell some bad things about igorots.But I am so lucky to be an igorot because we are raised to be a God fearing human beings.And I do not need to shout out to the whole world that I am PROUD to be an igorot.I just simply say I am an igorot.
It's the Tagalogs isn't it? It's always been like that even us in the Central Visayas are oftentimes discriminated by them. It's annoying as it gets, even kids do it.
That’s true ..they making fun the Filipinos coming from Visayas and mindanao . “ Tapos na sabihin mukhang Visaya eh parang kinukutya mo sarili mo Na taga manila ka nga pero mag ka mukha Lang kayo . “ Lol 😂 Napa isip ako.
@@gungatz6696 It's not the tagalogs, tagalogs don't live near those people, even if there are few tagalog who does it's not just tagalogs there are many ignorant people, even other ethnicities use the word Igorot for black, they thought Igorots are short and dark skinned people. The Visayans always pretend to be victims, they generalize all Tagalogs while they themselves discriminate against other ethnicities. Look at this one "people from Maniluhh" lmao th-cam.com/video/qAiV9tktrXM/w-d-xo.html
That's beautiful 😊. Fellow pinoys who discriminate against Igorots tend to be Tagalogs, maybe Ilocanos & Visayans too. Tagalog people look down on most other ethnic groups in North Luzon, Visayas & Mindanao. The Tagalog people have the privilege of being the largest ethnic group & the most mainstream culture in the Philippines. Spanish occupation mainly centered in Southern Luzon where the Tagalog groups were located. It seems that other indigenous/ethnic groups who successfully fought off or evaded Colonial rule, aren't as Hispanicized, & aren't european white-mestizos like many Tagalog & Ilocano people(believe & hope they are) are somehow "inferior" in their eyes 🙄🙄🙄.
Yes po totoo yan dahil ang Cordillera Region lang Ang hindi nasakop ng mga dayuhan sa buong pilipinas! Kahit saan mo dalhin mga igorot kaya nilang mangibabaw sa lahat kaya Salute and Respect sa lahat ng igorot!!! Igorot warrior!💪💪💪🇵🇭
I really admire you for using your platform to educate others about us Igorots. The misconception about us on how we look, the color of our skin, and so on is so deep-rooted that even an explanation will only end up on deaf ears. There should be a total revision of our school textbooks to correct these misconceptions that feed the minds of fellow Filipinos, especially the young generation. Keep up the good work! Matago-tago ka!👍🙏
so great that we have a historians of our own, more history to make clear the wrong info. concerning igorots. infact we igorots are more sound in speaking English than the lowlands....
I’m proud of our Igorot ancestors,they defended their lands from the invaders,they maintained their culture and tradition,remained proud to this day.Of all the Filipinos most of the Igorots has legit last name,not borrowed names from the Spaniards 👍.To the Filipinos who are ignorant you are welcome to visit us in the Cordilleras,we are friendly and peace loving people😊✌️.I’m impressed with your research sir, keep us especially the young Igorots and some lowland Filipinos informed.Thank you for sharing.How about a book compilation of your research,just a thought😊
No wonder everytime I am asked if I am a Filipino, I am always defensive and always answer I am a full blooded Igorot the so called “ brown Americans” now I realize the reason why.... we’ve been discriminated by our own country men out of ignorance,
Thank you sir I am proud to be here in Cordillera also proud in relationship with a FBI (FULL BLOODED IGOROT) a loving, brave and naanu-anus nga ama. One of my observation is that Igorot is very helpful, kind, and humble. Saan mo mangngeg nga ipalastog da ti tulong da katatalna da nalang ket ited da ti kabaelan da nadakdakkel pay nga tulong no dagita parammag nga daduma. Makitam nasimple da lang nga agdala ngem nababaknang da saan nga kasla dita katagalugan wenno ilocano ti baba madapol naparammag no addaan ipakita nga nabaknang. I hope this will help people to not criticize again the Igorot and serves as lesson to those who discriminate your ethnicity. We are proud of you all🥰
Spaniards and Americans were really harsh and violent during those times until now. No wonder kung bakit ayaw ni Pres. Duterte sa Western countries especially the U.S.. Our ancestors fought for us ket Sapay kuma ta datayu nga henerasyon ken sumarsaruno haan tayo met kuma itulok nga maawan ti identity or culture tayo as igorot Instead Lets continue preserving our culture and dig more history about us.
when the Spaniards always ambushed by the ISNAG TRIBES when they entered lower Apayao in cordillera their Church and garrison in Mataguisi, Pudtol, Apayao where also burned their priest where also beheaded along with a number of INDIOS and spanish soldiers who stationed there, the spaniards went deeper into the upper apayao but still the same scenario happed. until the Spaniards abandon their campaign in Apayao and never return again until the Americans entered and introduce education, medicine, religion and country music cos its the only way to subdue them not by war. now isnag people still practice their traditions, they are very proud of their identity
This is true. When I was little and my Lola said I was being bad or too wild, she always called me an Igorot. I never understood then. But now as an adult I would take that as a compliment. In many ways I think they are the truest Filipinos.
I normally don't comment on youtube, but this strikes close to the heart. I agree that up until this day, many lowland Filipinos look at Igorots as uneducated, lowly people. I was born and raised here in Manila, but I'm always proud of being a full-blooded Igorot (both parents are from Mt. Province 😃). Many times have I experienced talking to people who are badmouthing Igorots (e.g. "ang b***/slow mo naman, para kang Igorot", or "bakit ganyan itsura mu? Para kang Igorot"), only to find out they are speaking to one 😂 (who is by the way among the top students in class, who even tutors them at times... Hehe). I hope there comes a time that correcting them won't be necessary anymore, since they already know who Igorots really are.
I admire you and all the knowledge and receipts you provided. I am a Kapampangan living in Canada and this video is tearfull, awakening educational and informative. I have a friend and used to work with him. I learned later he was Itneg after I quit that job and moved on. I learned later on Itnegs are Igorots. He never mentioned once. How I wished I knew back then.
Bro I have only one thing to say united we stand divided we fall...History has been different to each and every one of us, but now as a one country.. we can do it better if not than at least a bit....... Love from 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
When I found out I was adopted, I wished I was part Igorot. Turns out I am a mix of Lumad (Mindanao), Waray, Cebuano, Palawanon, Anglo-American, and Spanish. Had I not been adopted, my surname would still be of English origin. My American ancestor was said to be a fire fighter during the American period, married a Spanish descent from Davao, and had two sons. One of those sons had an illegitimate son, with a pure Waray woman, who became my birth grandpa. That grandpa married a woman of Lumad and Cebuana descent. I am excited for my dna kit to arrive to confirm if these stories are true.
Sorry to be so late: Clark AFB, Luzon PI I have a lot of respect and affection for the Negritoes. I believe they are one of the groups showing DNA descended from the Denisovan heritage. In 1965 / 66, My father was stationed at Clark AFB as a career US Air Force NCO. I was a teenager attending the local US High School. That was a great time and place to grow up in many ways. There was almost constant turmoil of various types as Clark AFB was an entry and exit route for the Vietnam War activities. USO shows almost always stopped at Clark on their way to Vietnam. There were several Filipinos who became close friends with my parents, even taught my mother how to paint in oils. One who bought my father’s car when we left for the next duty station. There was real adventure in riding the Rabbit bus to Baguio for mountain weekends. Also in hiking to climb Mount Pinotuba with warnings of communist Huks being active. Every year there was a memorial recreation of the Bataan Death March with a survivor of the original one. Due to the priority of supporting efforts in the Vietnam War, theft became something of an issue on base. The following occurred during our stay there: Major cash robbery at the military bank and fled away Theft of a fire engine on base by turning on the lights and sirens, out the front gate Theft of part of the wing of a C-130 under repairs, disappeared The base command was pretty furious and looking for a good solution. They were approached by the Chief of the local Negritoes, similar to African Pygmy tribes, who asked for the jobs. The US Command were hesitant about this until one of the Filipino officers described the tribe’s Participation in World War II. After the Japanese Army occupied Clark Field, the Negritoes went to ground locally. Throughout the war they did things like slip into the Japanese barracks at night and cut the throat of every other man. The Japanese greatly feared the presence of this tribe in their area. After that discussion, There were 4 -foot Negrito guards, with 5-foot single-barrel shotguns and large knives, nearly everywhere. There were no more thefts during our stay there. Even the Huks seemed to have found other interests. The Negritoes also led us on our scouting expeditions to climb Mount Pinotuba, which had not erupted yet. The only payment they accepted was American cigarettes. They are a wonderful group to work with and always surprising. Here is an excellent video on the various tribes of Luzon. th-cam.com/video/JIl4xPc6BkY/w-d-xo.html And an excellent article in the UK Daily Mail. www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-9886821/Filipino-ethnic-group-Denisovan-DNA-world-study-finds.html Regards
This is the same in every southeast Asian country. Vietnam had tribal people called montagnards who speak an austronesian language. They were discriminated against by the Vietnamese, so many Americans recruited them in special forces during the Vietnam war. Indigenous Taiwanese are austronesian speakers but are discriminated by Han ethnic Chinese. Taiwan wasn’t originally a “Chinese” area. The Chinese colonized it and forced out the indigenous people. All these people were darker skinned than the Vietnamese and Chinese.
In the Visayas, we greatly look them up when we hear of or come into contact with one because we subconsciously believe they were our ancestors....I mean Its so fascinating to see or know someone from our origin so our innate desire to defend them occurs naturally...
our folks continue to tell story about the bravery our ancestors during the time of the headhunters on how they cut the head of their enemy with one blow, how they run trough the jungle mountains when they hunt wild boars and how they worship their ANITOS on a sacred tree. whenever happens im proud to be ISNAG/IGOROT savage backfighter but BRAVE and im always proud of my identity
We are no difference here in India, as a Naga of Nagaland,and north east india in general. Any way, lets hope and pray that, a day may come for our rescued... 🙏👍
Great video and great to learn about your culture and past… people say that the history is written by the victors … great to hear about your peoples… keep going and all the best 👏🏽
Thank you for sharing this video, sir. It would be a big help for me to my study because one of our major subjects is Anthropology. Hoping for more videos like this.

I have always ADMIRED THE IGOROTS...I love to dance their native dance. I admire you, too for doing videos about this Filipino race of ours. Mabuhay ka!🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am an Igorot Tagalog Ilocano Kampangan Chinese French Spanish, Portuguese. My Portuguese Chinese ancestor was a close friend of Jose Rizal and became part of the KKK and fought against the Spaniards. His son, my great grandfather fought against the Japanese and some Igorots helped him, although he was later captured by the Japanese and was beheaded by the Japanese here in the Cordilleras. My Ilocano Igorot ancestors were the pioneers here in Baguio and had a shop when Maharlika building was still the stone market, the heart of the city. I am proud to be an Igorot. If you are and/or have been in Baguio, you probably have seen me because of my unique features. Excellent content! 💪🔥💯🦅Salasalamat! God bless and more power.
@@FDGSTAGES You are welcome kailyan! 👍👍☺️ I envy other cordillerans who are still living in the forest, so blessed. For Baguio had been slowly losing it's essence as part of the cordilleras because of so called "progress and modernization". Whenever I get the chance to go to the Cordilleran forests, I just run for hours on end shirtless, till all the fresh air and the spirits of the forest enters my lungs into my heart flowing through my veins and into every part of my body giving me an exhilirating rush of bliss and serenity no words can explain. haha. really makes me want to go to the forest right now. hahaha. I stll remember the time when Baguio smelled like pine trees.😔🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲 English was the lingua franca here in Baguio so my ancestors spoke to me in English. Like my great grandma in my father's side, whenever she talked to me it was only in English, akala ata Amerikano apo nya sa tuhod. haha. Then Tagalog became the Lingua Franca... My grandma in my mother's side is a Taga-ilog (tagalog) who married my grandfather who is a Taga-bundok (igorot ilocano) but she spent most of her life here. My grandfather became the head assessor of Baguio in the past, but nothing political, just an ordinary worker and public servant. Lately, more and more people are speaking Ilocano and other native languages so i need to catch up with my vocabulary especially highland ilocano. haha. 😬 and your videos are very helpful! 👍👍💯🔥❤️
Write a history book about the Igorot people and go to the Department of Education and present it and ask them to include in the curriculum . That will be your leagacy.
Great subject matter btw and really the indigenous people ie aetas/negritos should be acknowledged as the original people of the Philippines. They came to Phils 3000BC ago according to some studies. It is so sad how all these misconceptions are ingrained in majority of the filipinos. But also want to comment at 4:40 when you mentioned Spain sold Philippines to the US. It wasn't that they sold Phils but Spain lost the war against the US and made to sign a peace treaty relinquishing control of their overseas colonies which included Philippines. Anyways thank you for your video.
Wow! Thanks so much for this history of igorots way back Spanish time, very informative and educational, it's so sad to learn about this..but thankfully modern igorots .. are continually making ourselves known to be worthy called as Filipinos also
Bro. Thanks got your vlogg people know your culture thru your media vlogg. Igorots is one of the pillar of our history that exist until now. Good job Bro. Continue your vlogg to show the people in this land and world of our culture. God Bless.....
everytime i talk about my roots i say i am igorot and they would ask which country and then i will tell where i came from. I more proud to be igorot than filipina.sorry that's just my thing.
I've love Igorot even my blood line is from bicol and mix Tagalog from my mother 😄 Igorot people is hard worker tough people they are so brave in fighting the counqueror of our land. They never defeat by Spaniards.
You are the true patriots of your land like the Nagas of India and Myanmar who have continually been fighting with Indian occupational forces. God bless...
There is also a misconception that when you are from Baguio you are a "Baguio Boy" not an Igorot and lowland people think that Igorots are only those people living in the remote mountain ranges in the Cordilleras not the people they meet in the streets wearing jeans and levis.
for your information... people in cordilleran, most ot them are farmers... but after the work in the garden or in the mountain, they are using jeans, levis lee, boot, merrel, cowboy hut etc. when they come out like party, wedding and even when they go to the market... and when it comes to an traditional occasions.. thats the time that they use the traditional clothes like bahag and etc.
Thank you very much your contents were good many youngsters now adays dont know our history this is very very helpful im frm kalinga prov thank you very much kabsat
They tried to turn the Igorots into what they did to the Peruvians, a slave miner population. However, the men and their chieftains of the Igorots, every time they would come down to trade would intentionally confuse them for these leaders already knew what the Spaniards were after.
I myself as part of the Igorot tribe has experienced discrimination first hand. I could not believe the extent of Filipino ignorance on this day of age.
Mabuhay ka kapatid o bai, cebuano o bisaya kasi ako sana magising na po ang lahat na mga pilipino. igorot ka man bisaya o tagalog tayo ay magkapatid sa dugo dapat baguhin na ang na kasanayan mga ugali dapat pantay2x lang po ang pagtingin sa lahat, Dahil sa mata ng Dios ama may likha sa atin ay pantay2x lang tayong lahat sa kanya. Ang mga Colunizer na Spaniards educates us sa maling paniniwala na brain wash po ang karamihan sa atin mga pinoy ..mao ni tinu-od 🙂🥰
True the first time i work in Manila no 1 believes that i'm an igorot because what they know about igorots are pandak,my buntot,maitim at kulot Ang buhok,I explained to them that it's the aeta that they were describing not igorots.
If you really do some digging you'll find that our filipino people are related to the moors of africa. In fact that is how islam came to the filipines. At one point most of the filipines were muslims. We had saltans and everything. We called our selves moros (meaning moors) i tell my filipino friends this all the time. Even look at our swords, there is one that closely resemble middle eastern swords. The moros lead many revolts against the spaniards. th-cam.com/video/IPFrI_KMWwE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/-9zdLBNf8HE/w-d-xo.html
Im a Pacific islander frm Micronesia. The US part of Micronesia look down on us as if there is something wrong with being Micronesian. In fact they dont even consider themselves as Micronesians just because they are Americanized.
That depends on the way how others look to our cultures.. Coz I don't think keeping our cultures alive was a bases to be called uncivilized.. Coz as I know Manny of our fellow igorots are now successful in any field they have chosen.. Such as education, politics, sports pageants and many more.. And also lately I just learned that majority of the member of the Philippine police are igorots. Maybe you can call us people of the mountain as true meaning of the igorot word.. But that was much more nice to hear than to be called indio a Spanish word which means idiot a word use by the Spanish reffering to those who became s subject to their rule.. ( im not saying this because i was reffering to some one. But only to share some information that was according to our history)Let should spread love, appreciation and respect.. And not sorrow, hate and mis understanding because of our own ignorance.. Peace to all ( sorry for the wrong grammar, spelling and the way my sentences were constructed. Coz I'm just a simple gardener with low educational background)

Igorota here. It's not only misconception but most of the time being ridiculed even today. I remember when we were kids the Kapampamgan and tagalogat our place taunted, bully, throw stone at us
Most Filipinos are short and darker skinned. Not just igorots are discriminated against but the whole inhabitants of Maharlika or Ophir (modern Phillipines) suffered by the hands of the colonizers... Appreciate you shedding light on this topic though ! Awesome job!
Oh please not this shit again. Why do you always fall for bull5hit pseudo history? Your ancient Maharlika kingdom is nothing but a hoax perpetuated by idiotic nationalists.
@@ethanmanjhi4007 they're not dark. It's just misconception and they often times exchange aeta and igorots. Igorots are one of the purest austronesian and compared to other filipino who has negrito admixture, Igorots are more "asian looking" than others. Igorots are looked down upon because their way of living is different compared to most filipinos. Tagalogs have the habit in bullying other filipinos and they're very colorist, they assume Igorots to have darker skin when the truth is Igorots have much lighter skin compared to ordinary filipinos.
Ngayon na padpad ako sa ibat ibang sulok ng mundo at mahilig din ako sa history alam ko at naintidihan ko na kung gaano ka halaga ang mga IP saan man sa mundo,dto sa Canada ang IP o ist nation people ay napaka ganda ng trato sa batas pra sa kanila!my kasama ako sa trabaho exempted sa taxes at my allowance kda buwan bawat isa sa kanila dko sasabihin kung mgkano pwedi ng hindi na sila mgtrabaho sa allowance nila
I do not know anything about Igorots except for their headhunting, but as an indigenous tribal myself, I would say no society is "uncivilized" they evolved into what they are because of various factors, i.e Geographical, Climatic, Social, and Economic as well as other factors. So people who views one society as being "uncivilized" are themselves so, as they measured the "civilized" on their own narrow minded scale without taking the above factors in consideration.
As what they call it: it was the winners that writes history no matter how the facts are falsified or revised. Good thing igorots remain steadfast in resisting to be colonized and be deprived of their freedom and cultural identity. Am proud to be one of the generations who was able to experience & witness the preserved culture fought by our ancestors.😊
Ang problema ngayon ang bagong generation hindi hilig sa History,online Games mas lalong maging mang2 cla kaya d alam ang kahalagahan na alam mo kung san tayo galing at ang kultora nilason sila sa social media at fake history

Igorots are one society where men and women share the equal role in the family…women are not lowly part but rather valued part in the family!!!

also true in other tribes in the Philippines before the Spanish came. not exclusive to Igorots

Iyaman kailyan. I appreciate it. I'm glad to be able to do this as I am proud to be an Igorot. Wen will not stop. Cheers! ✌
so great that we have a historians of our own, more history to make clear the wrong info. concerning igorots. infact we igorots are more sound in speaking English than the lowlands....
If we don't educate people about this type of things history surely repeat itself... and thats messed up .... really 😭😭😭
Indeed 🙏
I’m proud of our Igorot ancestors,they defended their lands from the invaders,they maintained their culture and tradition,remained proud to this day.Of all the Filipinos most of the Igorots has legit last name,not borrowed names from the Spaniards 👍.To the Filipinos who are ignorant you are welcome to visit us in the Cordilleras,we are friendly and peace loving people😊✌️.I’m impressed with your research sir, keep us especially the young Igorots and some lowland Filipinos informed.Thank you for sharing.How about a book compilation of your research,just a thought😊
I hope I can do that in the future. Thank you kailyan for the well-laid thought. Matagotago tako am in! 🙏
Truly our igorot surname is legit not borrow from outsider native na native😊
No wonder everytime I am asked if I am a Filipino, I am always defensive and always answer I am a full blooded Igorot the so called “ brown Americans”
now I realize the reason why.... we’ve been discriminated by our own country men out of ignorance,
Thank you sir I am proud to be here in Cordillera also proud in relationship with a FBI (FULL BLOODED IGOROT) a loving, brave and naanu-anus nga ama. One of my observation is that Igorot is very helpful, kind, and humble. Saan mo mangngeg nga ipalastog da ti tulong da katatalna da nalang ket ited da ti kabaelan da nadakdakkel pay nga tulong no dagita parammag nga daduma. Makitam nasimple da lang nga agdala ngem nababaknang da saan nga kasla dita katagalugan wenno ilocano ti baba madapol naparammag no addaan ipakita nga nabaknang. I hope this will help people to not criticize again the Igorot and serves as lesson to those who discriminate your ethnicity. We are proud of you all🥰
Spaniards and Americans were really harsh and violent during those times until now. No wonder kung bakit ayaw ni Pres. Duterte sa Western countries especially the U.S.. Our ancestors fought for us ket Sapay kuma ta datayu nga henerasyon ken sumarsaruno haan tayo met kuma itulok nga maawan ti identity or culture tayo as igorot Instead Lets continue preserving our culture and dig more history about us.
when the Spaniards always ambushed by the ISNAG TRIBES when they entered lower Apayao in cordillera their Church and garrison in Mataguisi, Pudtol, Apayao where also burned their priest where also beheaded along with a number of INDIOS and spanish soldiers who stationed there, the spaniards went deeper into the upper apayao but still the same scenario happed. until the Spaniards abandon their campaign in Apayao and never return again until the Americans entered and introduce education, medicine, religion and country music cos its the only way to subdue them not by war. now isnag people still practice their traditions, they are very proud of their identity
This is true. When I was little and my Lola said I was being bad or too wild, she always called me an Igorot. I never understood then. But now as an adult I would take that as a compliment. In many ways I think they are the truest Filipinos.
My Lola called people who were bad Huddio.
I normally don't comment on youtube, but this strikes close to the heart. I agree that up until this day, many lowland Filipinos look at Igorots as uneducated, lowly people. I was born and raised here in Manila, but I'm always proud of being a full-blooded Igorot (both parents are from Mt. Province 😃). Many times have I experienced talking to people who are badmouthing Igorots (e.g. "ang b***/slow mo naman, para kang Igorot", or "bakit ganyan itsura mu? Para kang Igorot"), only to find out they are speaking to one 😂 (who is by the way among the top students in class, who even tutors them at times... Hehe). I hope there comes a time that correcting them won't be necessary anymore, since they already know who Igorots really are.
I admire you and all the knowledge and receipts you provided. I am a Kapampangan living in Canada and this video is tearfull, awakening educational and informative. I have a friend and used to work with him. I learned later he was Itneg after I quit that job and moved on. I learned later on Itnegs are Igorots. He never mentioned once. How I wished I knew back then.
I'm a Ilocano I respect and honored the Igorot we are all Flipino..I love my country and all the people who live there.
Bro I have only one thing to say united we stand divided we fall...History has been different to each and every one of us, but now as a one country.. we can do it better if not than at least a bit.......
Love from 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
When I found out I was adopted, I wished I was part Igorot. Turns out I am a mix of Lumad (Mindanao), Waray, Cebuano, Palawanon, Anglo-American, and Spanish. Had I not been adopted, my surname would still be of English origin. My American ancestor was said to be a fire fighter during the American period, married a Spanish descent from Davao, and had two sons. One of those sons had an illegitimate son, with a pure Waray woman, who became my birth grandpa. That grandpa married a woman of Lumad and Cebuana descent. I am excited for my dna kit to arrive to confirm if these stories are true.
Do not discouraged anyone. Regards from North East India..
Thank you so much our NE India brothers and sisters. 🙏
Sorry to be so late:
Clark AFB, Luzon PI
I have a lot of respect and affection for the Negritoes. I believe they are one of the groups showing DNA descended from the Denisovan heritage.
In 1965 / 66, My father was stationed at Clark AFB as a career US Air Force NCO. I was a teenager attending the local US High School. That was a great time and place to grow up in many ways. There was almost constant turmoil of various types as Clark AFB was an entry and exit route for the Vietnam War activities. USO shows almost always stopped at Clark on their way to Vietnam. There were several Filipinos who became close friends with my parents, even taught my mother how to paint in oils. One who bought my father’s car when we left for the next duty station.
There was real adventure in riding the Rabbit bus to Baguio for mountain weekends. Also in hiking to climb Mount Pinotuba with warnings of communist Huks being active. Every year there was a memorial recreation of the Bataan Death March with a survivor of the original one.
Due to the priority of supporting efforts in the Vietnam War, theft became something of an issue on base. The following occurred during our stay there:
Major cash robbery at the military bank and fled away
Theft of a fire engine on base by turning on the lights and sirens, out the front gate
Theft of part of the wing of a C-130 under repairs, disappeared
The base command was pretty furious and looking for a good solution. They were approached by the Chief of the local Negritoes, similar to African Pygmy tribes, who asked for the jobs. The US Command were hesitant about this until one of the Filipino officers described the tribe’s Participation in World War II.
After the Japanese Army occupied Clark Field, the Negritoes went to ground locally. Throughout the war they did things like slip into the Japanese barracks at night and cut the throat of every other man. The Japanese greatly feared the presence of this tribe in their area.
After that discussion, There were 4 -foot Negrito guards, with 5-foot single-barrel shotguns and large knives, nearly everywhere. There were no more thefts during our stay there. Even the Huks seemed to have found other interests.
The Negritoes also led us on our scouting expeditions to climb Mount Pinotuba, which had not erupted yet. The only payment they accepted was American cigarettes. They are a wonderful group to work with and always surprising.
Here is an excellent video on the various tribes of Luzon.

And an excellent article in the UK Daily Mail.

This is the same in every southeast Asian country. Vietnam had tribal people called montagnards who speak an austronesian language. They were discriminated against by the Vietnamese, so many Americans recruited them in special forces during the Vietnam war. Indigenous Taiwanese are austronesian speakers but are discriminated by Han ethnic Chinese. Taiwan wasn’t originally a “Chinese” area. The Chinese colonized it and forced out the indigenous people. All these people were darker skinned than the Vietnamese and Chinese.
In the Visayas, we greatly look them up when we hear of or come into contact with one because we subconsciously believe they were our ancestors....I mean Its so fascinating to see or know someone from our origin so our innate desire to defend them occurs naturally...
You are a true Filipino brother! I am a Capampangan who is so proud of the Igorots!
our folks continue to tell story about the bravery our ancestors during the time of the headhunters on how they cut the head of their enemy with one blow, how they run trough the jungle mountains when they hunt wild boars and how they worship their ANITOS on a sacred tree. whenever happens im proud to be ISNAG/IGOROT savage backfighter but BRAVE and im always proud of my identity
We are no difference here in India, as a Naga of Nagaland,and north east india in general. Any way, lets hope and pray that, a day may come for our rescued... 🙏👍
Great video and great to learn about your culture and past… people say that the history is written by the victors … great to hear about your peoples… keep going and all the best 👏🏽
Indeed! Thank you Sir. I appreciate it 🙏
Hello Mr FDG, so proud of you. Watching your Videos, from Italy, keep on...GOD BLESS YOU.
Thank you for sharing this video, sir. It would be a big help for me to my study because one of our major subjects is Anthropology. Hoping for more videos like this.
One of the most interesting subject, enjoy your studies madam. 😊 Salamat. 🙏
Another historical video that is to be shared. :) Thanks a lot po. Indeed, let us aim to work together in educating our fellow.
Very interesting.From Mizoram,North East India.
Thank you so much for sharing this very informative history about us Igorots.
Ya,let's respect each other b'cause the colour of the skin may be black,white,yellow,etc but the colour of blood as red is the same.
🙏🙏🙏
Hahahaha We are better than lowland, look like Chinese than the lowlander...
Nagaland india.geaographycaly very.far . but I wonder similarities in.tradition,culture .way of.....etc. With naga living here . hope one day science will reveal it , wish you all
I have always ADMIRED THE IGOROTS...I love to dance their native dance. I admire you, too for doing videos about this Filipino race of ours. Mabuhay ka!🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good job sir, we're so proud n happy for sharing this video. More blessing & keep safe 🙏.
I am an Igorot Tagalog Ilocano Kampangan Chinese French Spanish, Portuguese. My Portuguese Chinese ancestor was a close friend of Jose Rizal and became part of the KKK and fought against the Spaniards. His son, my great grandfather fought against the Japanese and some Igorots helped him, although he was later captured by the Japanese and was beheaded by the Japanese here in the Cordilleras. My Ilocano Igorot ancestors were the pioneers here in Baguio and had a shop when Maharlika building was still the stone market, the heart of the city. I am proud to be an Igorot. If you are and/or have been in Baguio, you probably have seen me because of my unique features. Excellent content! 💪🔥💯🦅Salasalamat! God bless and more power.
Wow, that is amazing. Thank you for sharing kailyan. Your lineage is so rich. 🙏
@@FDGSTAGES You are welcome kailyan! 👍👍☺️ I envy other cordillerans who are still living in the forest, so blessed. For Baguio had been slowly losing it's essence as part of the cordilleras because of so called "progress and modernization". Whenever I get the chance to go to the Cordilleran forests, I just run for hours on end shirtless, till all the fresh air and the spirits of the forest enters my lungs into my heart flowing through my veins and into every part of my body giving me an exhilirating rush of bliss and serenity no words can explain. haha. really makes me want to go to the forest right now. hahaha. I stll remember the time when Baguio smelled like pine trees.😔🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
English was the lingua franca here in Baguio so my ancestors spoke to me in English. Like my great grandma in my father's side, whenever she talked to me it was only in English, akala ata Amerikano apo nya sa tuhod. haha. Then Tagalog became the Lingua Franca... My grandma in my mother's side is a Taga-ilog (tagalog) who married my grandfather who is a Taga-bundok (igorot ilocano) but she spent most of her life here. My grandfather became the head assessor of Baguio in the past, but nothing political, just an ordinary worker and public servant. Lately, more and more people are speaking Ilocano and other native languages so i need to catch up with my vocabulary especially highland ilocano. haha. 😬 and your videos are very helpful! 👍👍💯🔥❤️
Thanks for the knowledge.
I'm proud Ifugao; I'm proud Igorota.
My pleasure. Thank you and hagiyo! 🙏
Proud FBI (Full Blooded Igorot) here watching your video since 2020, thank you for educating others thru this wonderful videos. ❤
Write a history book about the Igorot people and go to the Department of Education and present it and ask them to include in the curriculum . That will be your leagacy.
Great subject matter btw and really the indigenous people ie aetas/negritos should be acknowledged as the original people of the Philippines. They came to Phils 3000BC ago according to some studies. It is so sad how all these misconceptions are ingrained in majority of the filipinos. But also want to comment at 4:40 when you mentioned Spain sold Philippines to the US. It wasn't that they sold Phils but Spain lost the war against the US and made to sign a peace treaty relinquishing control of their overseas colonies which included Philippines. Anyways thank you for your video.
That's a western view of what happened...Spain did sell the Philippines to the US
Wow! Thanks so much for this history of igorots way back Spanish time, very informative and educational, it's so sad to learn about this..but thankfully modern igorots .. are continually making ourselves known to be worthy called as Filipinos also
thank you for the enlightenment and sharing. i'd be proud if they'd call me an igorot.
Hello new subscriber added lots of love from nagaland.......
Bro. Thanks got your vlogg people know your culture thru your media vlogg. Igorots is one of the pillar of our history that exist until now. Good job Bro. Continue your vlogg to show the people in this land and world of our culture. God Bless.....
Dear Lord please help him to find the truth and your Blessings according to your will.thank you brother ;May God bless you!!
everytime i talk about my roots i say i am igorot and they would ask which country and then i will tell where i came from. I more proud to be igorot than filipina.sorry that's just my thing.
Thanks for this. Growing up in America I was never taught anything about my ancestors history
I've love Igorot even my blood line is from bicol and mix Tagalog from my mother 😄 Igorot people is hard worker tough people they are so brave in fighting the counqueror of our land. They never defeat by Spaniards.
You are the true patriots of your land like the Nagas of India and Myanmar who have continually been fighting with Indian occupational forces. God bless...
There is also a misconception that when you are from Baguio you are a "Baguio Boy" not an Igorot and lowland people think that Igorots are only those people living in the remote mountain ranges in the Cordilleras not the people they meet in the streets wearing jeans and levis.
Lol levis
for your information... people in cordilleran, most ot them are farmers... but after the work in the garden or in the mountain, they are using jeans, levis lee, boot, merrel, cowboy hut etc. when they come out like party, wedding and even when they go to the market... and when it comes to an traditional occasions.. thats the time that they use the traditional clothes like bahag and etc.
@@virginhuntertv3442 I'm an Igorot and NOT many of us wear Levis and those branded things anymore.
They didn't lose their culture. They Got a timely upgrade!!
Thank you very much your contents were good many youngsters now adays dont know our history this is very very helpful im frm kalinga prov thank you very much kabsat
They tried to turn the Igorots into what they did to the Peruvians, a slave miner population. However, the men and their chieftains of the Igorots, every time they would come down to trade would intentionally confuse them for these leaders already knew what the Spaniards were after.
I myself as part of the Igorot tribe has experienced discrimination first hand. I could not believe the extent of Filipino ignorance on this day of age.
I feel you.
Proud of you Bro...
from Davao City.
Mabuhay ka kapatid o bai, cebuano o bisaya kasi ako sana magising na po ang lahat na mga pilipino. igorot ka man bisaya o tagalog tayo ay magkapatid sa dugo dapat baguhin na ang na kasanayan mga ugali dapat pantay2x lang po ang pagtingin sa lahat, Dahil sa mata ng Dios ama may likha sa atin ay pantay2x lang tayong lahat sa kanya. Ang mga Colunizer na Spaniards educates us sa maling paniniwala na brain wash po ang karamihan sa atin mga pinoy ..mao ni tinu-od 🙂🥰
True the first time i work in Manila no 1 believes that i'm an igorot because what they know about igorots are pandak,my buntot,maitim at kulot Ang buhok,I explained to them that it's the aeta that they were describing not igorots.
Ur research new hope!!nagaland india
Im an ilocano but i considering myself as Cordilleran 🥰🥰 im so proud of they're being bravery 🥰
That's amazing! Thank you kailyan. Cheers!
If you really do some digging you'll find that our filipino people are related to the moors of africa. In fact that is how islam came to the filipines. At one point most of the filipines were muslims. We had saltans and everything. We called our selves moros (meaning moors) i tell my filipino friends this all the time. Even look at our swords, there is one that closely resemble middle eastern swords. The moros lead many revolts against the spaniards.
th-cam.com/video/IPFrI_KMWwE/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/-9zdLBNf8HE/w-d-xo.html
unfortunately ilocos regions were dominated by conquerors during that time..igorots and ilocanos are brothers
@@unclejay9205 i think we are more related to the Chinese than Africa. The hanging coffins of Sagada is very similar to a part in China
Im a Pacific islander frm Micronesia. The US part of Micronesia look down on us as if there is something wrong with being Micronesian. In fact they dont even consider themselves as Micronesians just because they are Americanized.
US part of Micronesia is like Guam and Northern Mariana Islands
Thank you so much...for adding knowledge☺
My pleasure, and thank you so much. I would appreciate if you subscribe too 🙏
Wow! So informative Sir! Cheers!
Salamat kabsat. Cheers! 🙏
That depends on the way how others look to our cultures.. Coz I don't think keeping our cultures alive was a bases to be called uncivilized.. Coz as I know Manny of our fellow igorots are now successful in any field they have chosen.. Such as education, politics, sports pageants and many more.. And also lately I just learned that majority of the member of the Philippine police are igorots. Maybe you can call us people of the mountain as true meaning of the igorot word.. But that was much more nice to hear than to be called indio a Spanish word which means idiot a word use by the Spanish reffering to those who became s subject to their rule.. ( im not saying this because i was reffering to some one. But only to share some information that was according to our history)Let should spread love, appreciation and respect.. And not sorrow, hate and mis understanding because of our own ignorance.. Peace to all ( sorry for the wrong grammar, spelling and the way my sentences were constructed. Coz I'm just a simple gardener with low educational background)
Sa mga kababayan ko. May kaibigan ako Kankanay at kahit nung hindi ko pa siya kilala, naka ilan beses na ako bumisita sa Sagada.
Sila ang pinaka dignified, walang yabang at intilihenteng diretsong kausap na grupo ng tao na nakilala ko.
Sobrang yaman ng kultura nila at madaming matuturo sa atin low landers.
Ibang klase. Sobra sa folk wisdom. Pati yun function ng bawat tao sa kanilang community alam nila.
Madami tayong matututunan sa mga kababayan natin Igrot at ibang IP. Mga values na nawala na sa atin low landers.
Wow👍 Salamat for making this video kabsat… Mabuhay fellow Igorots🙏
My pleasure, and salamat kabsat. Cheers!
Hello, Love from Nagaland ❤❤❤
Welcome ti our homeland, cordillera mountain of rhe Phil, the Igorot Kingdom
It hurts me here those things happened to our brother highlanders.
Igorota here. It's not only misconception but most of the time being ridiculed even today. I remember when we were kids the Kapampamgan and tagalogat our place taunted, bully, throw stone at us
i love this analysis.
I'm a very proud Full - Blooded Igorot. I'm very proud of our culture and heritage. Matagotago tako amin
🔥🔥🔥
Go on brother.rRespectfullly
Love you
Thank you
Thank you brethren. I appreciate it .🙏
Most Filipinos are short and darker skinned. Not just igorots are discriminated against but the whole inhabitants of Maharlika or Ophir (modern Phillipines) suffered by the hands of the colonizers...
Appreciate you shedding light on this topic though ! Awesome job!
Wait wat igorots are dark?
And why igorots are discriminated when they have the same Austronesian ancestry like other filipinos
Oh please not this shit again. Why do you always fall for bull5hit pseudo history? Your ancient Maharlika kingdom is nothing but a hoax perpetuated by idiotic nationalists.
@@ethanmanjhi4007 they're not dark. It's just misconception and they often times exchange aeta and igorots. Igorots are one of the purest austronesian and compared to other filipino who has negrito admixture, Igorots are more "asian looking" than others. Igorots are looked down upon because their way of living is different compared to most filipinos. Tagalogs have the habit in bullying other filipinos and they're very colorist, they assume Igorots to have darker skin when the truth is Igorots have much lighter skin compared to ordinary filipinos.
Proud cordilleran here!
Hye... im a malay from malaysia... i found igorot people is so cool... malay ancestor is kinda same as igorot and dayak people
Indeed brother. Thank you 🙏
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge...
My pleasure. Salasalamat ah madam. 🙏
What an informative Freddy.👍👍 Good on you 🙏🙏
You are not the body but the soul, eternally part and parcel of the Supreme Soul.
Very informative sir🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you kailyan 🙏
igorots in the past where civilized, our ancestors make their own tribal laws and beliefs and they fought as one during their tribal wars
Ngayon na padpad ako sa ibat ibang sulok ng mundo at mahilig din ako sa history alam ko at naintidihan ko na kung gaano ka halaga ang mga IP saan man sa mundo,dto sa Canada ang IP o ist nation people ay napaka ganda ng trato sa batas pra sa kanila!my kasama ako sa trabaho exempted sa taxes at my allowance kda buwan bawat isa sa kanila dko sasabihin kung mgkano pwedi ng hindi na sila mgtrabaho sa allowance nila
I do not know anything about Igorots except for their headhunting, but as an indigenous tribal myself, I would say no society is "uncivilized" they evolved into what they are because of various factors, i.e Geographical, Climatic, Social, and Economic as well as other factors. So people who views one society as being "uncivilized" are themselves so, as they measured the "civilized" on their own narrow minded scale without taking the above factors in consideration.
I love igorots... excellent sharing
As what they call it: it was the winners that writes history no matter how the facts are falsified or revised. Good thing igorots remain steadfast in resisting to be colonized and be deprived of their freedom and cultural identity. Am proud to be one of the generations who was able to experience & witness the preserved culture fought by our ancestors.😊
Yes, it is a present day thing. Growing up here in the U.S. our fellow Filipinos have the same mindset.
When you say Filipino people you generalist, some maybe, cu'z my wife came from Bontoc and I love here very much, who ever she is
😂😂😂
I love the history. Salasalamat FDS 🙏
Salutewell explained Sir
Ang problema ngayon ang bagong generation hindi hilig sa History,online Games mas lalong maging mang2 cla kaya d alam ang kahalagahan na alam mo kung san tayo galing at ang kultora nilason sila sa social media at fake history
Mayat kabsat agpayso dayta.cheers!
Salamat kailyan. Cheers!
yan ang tunay na kasaysayan salamat lods
I'm proud for being an cordillera.
I have a better understanding as to why ilocanos sometimes don't refer to themselves as filipinos. Its time for healing of the nation as a whole.
