Lilaktob is a traditional weaving pattern from the province of Kalinga. It’s often called “lilagtob” or “nilaktob”, but the correct root is “lagtob”, which means “one after another”. Scholars have found that the honeycomb shape was inspired by an “inammata” design created by the Ga’dang tribe, which wards off evil with a symbol of an eye. Some elements can be found in tattoo patterns as well because some tribes used them as talismans for protection.
