| Summary: | This ethnobotanical study attempted to determine the existing relationship between the role of plants and the culture of the Tinguians of Abra. Ethnographic data gathering was used as a method in the study which includes questionnaire-respondents, interview and participation. Likewise, photographs and collection of specimens supported the findings. Scientific names were provided for 114 species representing 94 genera and 50 families which were found useful to the Tinguians as food source, medicine, personal care and ornamentation, tools and household articles, firewood, building materials, forage and toys. Plants were also found to be part of their literature, beliefs and practices. |
