Publisher's Synopsis

The Mythology of the Ifugaos is a book that explores the traditional beliefs and stories of the Ifugao people, an indigenous group from the Philippines. The book is a memoir of the American Folklore Society, written by Roy Franklin Barton, who spent several years studying the Ifugao culture and their mythology. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Ifugao mythology, such as their creation myths, their beliefs about the afterlife, and their stories of heroes and gods. Barton's writing provides a detailed and insightful look into the rich and complex mythology of the Ifugao people, and offers a unique perspective on the cultural traditions and beliefs of this fascinating group. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in folklore, mythology, or the cultural history of the Philippines.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
