in style but different in structure. The clout of the two is dif- 

 ferent, the apron of the Maiigyan being an additional distinction. 



Plate XVI 



The difference noticed in Plates XIV and XV between the long 

 legs of the Maiigyans and the short legs of the Ilongots is em- 

 phasized in the four men of this plate, and the other character- 

 istics may also be seen. The necklaces of the Maiigyan men are 

 very elaborate, and add distinction to their long necks. 



Plate XVII 



The women of this plate well represent the Maiigyan group, 

 from the young girl on the left who is mixed Primitive to the 

 old Woman on the right who is Australoid, probably part Negrito. 

 The changes in the breasts with advancing age may be seen also. 

 Several styles of skirts are to be noted, from its complete absence, 

 through the small apron, to the full skirt. 



Plate XVIII 



The Mangyans of Banganay have much Negrito blood, and 

 the various conditions of wavy and curly, to almost kinky, hair 

 may be seen in this plate. The long and short legs, the modified 

 Iberian ears, the modified Primitive ears, and the Australoid 

 noses are to be noticed. These are the remnants of Negritos 

 said by Meyer to exist in Mindoro, yet they are Mangyans not 

 greatly unlike others that have been portrayed. 



Plates XIX and XX 



The Ilongots of these plates give evidences of intermixture 

 with people having longer legs than themselves, because they 

 have legs of intermediate length, whereas those of the Ilongots 

 are usually short. Their features and ears are more Igorot than 

 Ilongot, although the Ilongot characters are present in both. 

 Their costumes are similar to those of other Ilongots but more 

 elaborate, and certain points of similarity to the Maiigyans may 

 be seen, such as the apron and the neck ornaments, although these 

 are only incidental in the make-up of the fully armed warrior. 



To summarize the full figures : The Maiigyans are long legged, 

 the Ilongots short legged, although some of them have legs of 

 intermediate length; from which it may be inferred that the 

 Ilongots are more Primitive and Alpine than the Maiigyans, 

 who are more Iberian and Australoid than the Ilongots.
