ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF HIGAONONS The Higaonon are mainly located in the entire province of Misamis Oriental as well as northern parts of Bukidnon, western parts of Agusan del Norte, western parts of Agusan del Sur, Camiguin (used to be Kamiguing), Rogongon in Iligan City, and eastern parts of Lanao del Norte. The Higaonons have a rather traditional way of living. Farming is their most important economic activity. The Higaonons are among the least known indigenous ethnolinguistic tribes situated in north-central Mindanao, the second-largest island of the Philippines. Etymologically, Higaonon is derived from the words higa (living), goan (mountains), and onon (people), forming a description as the “people of the living mountain”. Related etymology: The word Higaonon is derived from the word "higa" in the Higaonon dialect, which means coastal plains, and "gaon" meaning ascend to the mountains. Taken together, Higaonon, means the people of the coastal plains that ascended to the mountains. Higaonons were formerly coastal people of the provinces, as mentioned, who resisted the Spanish occupation and later avoided contact with southward migrants from Luzon and Visayas during the late Spanish colonial period and since American colonial and postwar eras seeking better economics opportunities awaiting them in Higaonon homelands. Driven to the hills and mountains, these people continued to exist and fought for the preservation of their people, heritage, and culture. The Higaonon people believe in a variety of deities, namely: Magbabayà (The Ruler of All) - The supreme god who has minor gods and goddesses beneath him to do specific jobs and take care of certain things, he is also the god of the west. Domalondong - The god of the north. Ongli - The god of the south. Tagolambong - The god of the east. Ibabasok - He watches over the crops and their growth in a simple ceremony at the center of the rice field. Dagingon - They worship this deity in an elaborated celebration complete with songs and dances which will last for nine nights during planting and after harvest seasons. Bulalakaw - The spirit who watches the rivers and takes care of the fishermen's catch. Tumpaa Nanapiyaw or Intumbangol - Watches the base of the earth night and day lest it crumbles. Tagabugtà - The spirit who watches the farm or the forest _cttopic:higaonon context_
