Kabayan National Museum

TIME : 2016/2/17 15:55:55

This compact museum is a good introduction to indigenous culture in this part of the Cordillera. Ask the friendly curator to explain the difference between traditional rich and poor clothing, show off a backpack used to carry pigs and the female mummy, explain local death rites and point out the Kankanay and Ikalahan ritual artefacts and plants used in the mummification process.
