Kalanguya people
Austronesian ethnic group / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kalanguya (also sometimes referred to as the Ikalahan) are an Austronesian ethnic group most closely associated with the Philippines' Cordillera Administrative Region,[2][3][4] but whose core population can be found across an area which also includes the provinces of Nueva Vizcaya, Nueva Ecija, and Pangasinan.[5] While this area spans Region I, the Cordillera Administrative Region, and Region II, it represents a largely geographically contiguous area.[2][6] Initially thought by some researchers as a subgroup of the Ifugao people,[7] extensive studies have now shown that the Kalanguya are distinct from the Ifugao.[8][9]
