converted to particularly the lowland
-coastal nations, and adopted
foreign elements of culture.
In western and the there are ethnolinguistic
nations who practice The Spanish called them after the
despite no resemblance or cultural ties to them apart from their religion. In
the and the highlands of Mindanao, there are native ethnic groups
collectively known as the Most maintain their animistic beliefs and
traditions, though me
so of them have converted to Christianity as well.
The Negrito were among the earliest humans to settle the

Philippines. The first known were the people of the Tabon man
remains. The Negrito population was estimated in 2004 at around
31,000. Their tribal groups include the Ati, and the Aeta. Their ways
of life remain mostly free from Western and Islamic influences.
Scholars study them to try to understand pre-Hispanic culture.
Ethnic groups may be subdivided into subgroups or tribes, which
over time may become separate ethnic groups themselves due to
endogamy or physical isolation from the parent group. Conversely,
formerly separate ethnicities can merge to form a pan-ethnicity and
may eventually merge into one single ethnicity. Whether through
division or amalgamation, the formation of a separate ethnic identity
is referred to as ethnogenesis.

An ethnic group or ethnicity is a category of people who identify with each other, usually on the basis of
presumed similarities such as a common language, ancestry, history, society, culture, nation, religion, race
or social treatment within their residing area. Ethnicity is often used synonymously with the term nation,
particularly in cases of ethnic nationalism, and is separate from, but related to the concept of races.
The term ethnic is derived from the Greek word ethnos more precisely, from the adjective ethnikos, which
was loaned into Latin as ethnicus. The inherited English language term for this concept is folk, used
alongside the latinate people since the late Middle English period.

IV. LESSON PROPER
Below are different ethnic tribes and group:
1. Igorot
- The Igorots are an ethnic people of the Philippines, clustered in the Cordillera region of Luzon.
Igorots are a very distinct group of people, a tribe who originate from the Northern provinces of
the Philippine archipelago. The word, Igorot in Tagalog means mountain people. For a long
time now, this term has been tacitly used in a derogatory sense.
2. Ifugao
- A group of wet-rice agriculturalists occupying the mountainous area of northern Luzon,
Philippines. They are of Malay stock and their language is Austronesian (Malayo-Polynesian),
as is that of their neighbours, but they have developed a number of cultural characteristics that
set them apart. Ifugao name means "inhabitant of the known world."

3. T’boli
- The most well-known is the T'boli Tribe, that lives in the province of South Cotabato, around
lake Sebu. Since the arrival of settlers originating from the other islands of the Philippines,
they gradually moved to the mountain slopes to live in scattered settlements in the Highlands.
4. Tausug
- The Tausug ("people of the current"—tau, "people"; sug, "sea current") are the numerically
dominant group in the Sulu Archipelago of the southern Philippines. Jolo Island, strategically
located near the heart of the archipelago, constitutes the cultural and political center of
Tausug society.

5. Gaddang
- The Gaddang are an indigenous Filipino people; a linguistically identified ethnic group sharing
centuries of residence in the watershed of the Cagayan River in Northern Luzon, Philippines.
Gaddang speakers were recently reported to number 30,000. This doesn't include another
6,000 related Ga'dang speakers whose vocabulary is more than 80% identical. As a group,
they comprise less than one-twentieth of one percent of the population of the Philippines.

6. Maguindanao
- The Maguindanao people are part of the wider Moro ethnic group, who constitute the sixth largest
Filipino ethnic group. Their name means “people of the flood plains”. Being the second largest
island group next to Luzon, Mindanao has been dubbed the country's 'Land of Promise' for its
untapped, promising natural resources. It has become globally known for being home to the surf
capital of the country, a famous highly-urbanized city, and jawdropping beaches.
7. Subanen
- Subanon (also spelled Subanen or Subanun) is a tribe indigenous to the Zamboanga peninsula
area, particularly living in the mountainous areas of Zamboanga del Sur and Misamis
Occidental, Mindanao Island, Philippines. They are known as “people of the river”, the
Subanen people used to thrive alongside riverbanks and there they nurture the environment,
both aquatic and agricultural resources.

8. Maranao
- The term Lanao is derived from a Maranao word “Ranao” meaning a body of water. “Maranao”
means lake dweller. They are the natives of the place occupying the land around Lake Lanao,
which is situated at the central part of Lanao del Sur. Lanao, applies to the entire area before
its division.
9. Kalinga
- The province of Kalinga is located in the Northern region of Luzon, in the Phillippines' Cordillera
mountains. For the men of the tribe, tattoos represent courage and the stages of being a
Kalinga warrior, while for women they symbolise maturity, fertility and beauty. The Kalinga
have rich cultural traditions and expressions of music, dance and artisan work. They continue
to enforce the “bodong” or peace pacts within the sub-tribes to resolve tribal conflicts.
Scholars and enthusiasts worldwide now flock to the province to learn the ancient method of
“batok” or hand-tapped tattoo.
