[181] This description is partially taken from the account of _Paul
P. de La Gironiere_, probably the one white man, who has witnessed
this rite (see Twenty Years in the Philippines, p. 108, London, 1853),
and from the stories of many old men, who themselves have participated
in the head-hunts and subsequent celebrations.

[186] This type of snare is used by nearly all Philippine tribes,
and it is also widespread in Malaysia.
[187] The mountain rice is known as _langpadan_, the lowland rice as
pagey (Ilocano _palay_).
[188] This is similar to the method followed in Sumatra. See _Marsden_,
History of Sumatra, 3d ed., pp. 71-72 (London, 1811).
[189] A similar device is employed in Java. See _Freeman_ and
_Chandler_, The World's Commercial Products, p. 36 (Boston, 1911).
[190] The latter is the customary method among the Bontoc Igorot. See

this type of plow of Chinese origin. The Tinguian name _alado_
is doubtless a corruption of the Spanish _arado_, but this of course
would not prove that the plow itself was derived from the Spaniards.
