KNOWN BY A host of different names – the Kabayan Mummies, the Ibaloi Mummies or the Benguet Mummies – the Fire Mummies of the Philippines, resting beneath the mountain slopes of Kabayan, are some of the most fascinating mummified remains in the world. Kabayan is one of the municipalities of the province of Benguet in the Cordillera Region of northern Luzon and was home to the Ibaloi, a dominant ethno-linguistic group. Like many tribes in the Cordillera region, the Ibaloi were prolific practitioners of tattooing.
