Slide Content

"REMONTADO
TRIBE " In The Philippines

Dumagat -
Remontado The Dumagat-Remontados are one of the
major groups of Indigenous peoples living in
the mountainous Southern Tagalog region.
They inhabit the uplands of Rizal and Quezon
Provinces along the Sierra Madre highlands. The Dumagat-Remontados, identified as a
Negrito ethnolinguistic group, derive their
name from the Spanish verb "remontar,"
meaning, "to flee to the hills," "to frighten
away," or "go back to the mountains." The
Remontados are also referred to as
Dumagat-Remontados and they prefer to be
called "taga-bundok" (from the mountains) or
"magkakaingin" (those who practice kaingin).

The main livelihoods
of the Dumagat-
Remontados are
traditional hunting,
farming, planting
trees, and fishing. WAY OF LIFE The indigenous group
practices monogamy and
often, endogamy.
Intermarriage with non-
Remontado is not popular
since the group members
said to be shy and passive
by nature are not
comfortable living with the
banyaga or settlers.CULTURE

LANGUAGE
The primary language of the
Remontado Agta tribe in the
Philippines is Tagalog, though
they also speak a dialect known
as Remontado Dumagat. This
dialect is also referred to as
Sinauna, Kabalat, or Hatang-Kaye
Y.

Food
Ginataang Pugahan with suso (snails)
with is a traditional food/dish from the
Dumagat Remontados tribe. The
cooking of ginatagaan pugahan has a
deep connection with the culture and
history of the tribe. It is not just food,
but a part of their identity and lifestyle

Traditional
Clothing
Men: Typically wear
a red loincloth
The clothing is made using natural fibers.
Intricate weaving techniques are employed
to create the fabric.
Plant-based dyes are used to achieve the
vibrant red color.
Cultural designs and symbols are integrated
into the fabric through the weaving process.
Women: Wear a tapis,
which is a wrap-
around skirt

Land Ownership The Remontado believe
that the ancestral lands
are theirs communally
and no individual can
claim land as private
property.
Communal Ownership They also have a rich
reservoir of knowledge on
the environment and
ecology. Their taxonomy
of the flora and fauna is
evident in their crops,
technology on hunting
wild games and even in
the identification of
medicinal plants.
