A man can have as many woman provided he can support the woman and the child , the time he cannot support the woman and the child , the woman was brought before the chieftain of the village and in front of the man the woman and the child is beheaded. But of all those years no-one had more than one wife because of the fear of the Code of Maragtas.

Ilongos as people they one common practices , the love for the young and the preservation of the old. Old men and women as Lolo and Lola.
