| General Note |
- General note - The Bontoc backpack, or fangao (counterpart of the Ifugao inabnutan) is used to carry provisions--food, blankets, and other necessities--when travelling away from home. It is made of bamboo, rattan, and palm fiber. The men who carry it on their backs seem to be wearing a cape "made of hanging vegetable threads." The term "head basket" (see Original Caption), which refers to the practice of headhunting among the Cordillera peoples, may be inappropriate today. (Capistrano-Baker, Basketry of the Luzon Cordillera, Philippines, 98; Jenks, The Bontoc Igorot, 122).
