This long out of print Field Museum study deals with the Tinguian, a tribe that numbered about 20,000 at the time this was published, and who lived in the sub-province of Abra in northwestern Luzon. This work remains the definitive publication on the material culture of this tribe. Religion, magic, and ceremonies are discussed, as are all aspects of Tinguian material culture. The photographs and drawings are principally of artifacts.
