"The Negrito and Allied Types in the Philippines and The Ilongot or Ibilao of Luzon" by David P. Barrows is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This book delves into the ethnological and anthropological characteristics of the Negrito people and their interactions with other indigenous groups in the Philippines, particularly the Ilongot. Barrows aims to highlight the often-overlooked implications of Negrito ancestry in the lineage of various Philippine populations. The book explores the physical and cultural attributes of the Negrito, as well as the Ilongot, through anthropometric measurements and observations made over several years. Barrows provides detailed descriptions of their physical traits, emphasizing their distinctive characteristics such as stature, cranial indices, and skin color, alongside cultural practices like headhunting prevalent among the Ilongot. By examining these groups, the author asserts the substantial Negrito influence on other island cultures, revealing a complex interplay of ethnicity, inheritance, and social structures within the Philippines. The work serves as both a detailed analysis of specific ethnic groups and a broader commentary on the evolution of indigenous cultures influenced by inherent racial mixtures.
