Visual Representations of Ifugao Houses
- Introduction
The follwing is an overview of several visual representations of Ifugao houses.
Since ethno-architecture is until now a rather undeveloped field in
social and cultural anthropology, the particularly detailed work of the late
William Henry Scott about the "Cordillera Architecture" in the Philippines
is then of high value.
The kinds of representations on this site vary from photographs to
sketches and even to a virtual model (VRML).
It is an attempt to present the different forms of visual representations
and how they could be embeded in hypermedia.
