The Igorot are a collective term for several indigenous ethnolinguistic groups in the Cordillera Administrative Region of northern Luzon, Philippines. The Apayao, or Isnag, are one such group, primarily inhabiting the present-day Apayao province. This photograph likely dates from the early 20th century, during the American colonial period in the Philippines (1898-1946), a time marked by extensive ethnographic study and documentation of the archipelago's diverse indigenous populations.
