Indigenous peoples in Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines, include various groups such as the Igorot, Ifugao, Kankanaey, and Ibaloi in the Cordillera region, as well as the Aeta and Dumagat in the central and southern parts of the island. These groups have distinct languages, cultures, and traditions, often closely tied to their ancestral lands. Many continue to practice traditional agriculture, crafts, and rituals, maintaining their unique identities despite external influences. Their rights and territories are increasingly recognized in contemporary discussions on indigenous peoples' rights in the Philippines.
