'''Igorot''' is an indegenous "mountain people" and denotes the inhabitants of the mountains of [[central Luzon]]. Igorot has a derogatory connotation implying backwardness and cultural inferiority. |
|||
There are seven major kinds of Igorots, these are: [[Apayao]], [[Tinggian]], [[Kalinga]], [[Bontoc]], [[Ifugao]], [[Kankanai]], and [[Ibaloi]]. |
|||
A group of Igorots were exhibited - as "savages" to be looked at like exotic animals - at the [[Louisiana Purchase Exposition]] (the 1904 [[World's Fair]]) in [[Saint Louis, Missouri]]. The Igorot enclosure was on the current site of Wydown Middle School, which at one time had an Igorot as the school mascot. |
