"Tawid" is an Ilokano word and is used by the Igorot, meaning Inheritance. In Finallig (Barlig dialect) it is refering to "Lakwin". Our ricefields are our most proud inheritance from our ancestors, a product of their ingenuity, hardwork and labor, it is our culture and the center of life of our forefathers.
