History

The history of Bambang, like most of the country, has its beginning in the early period of Spanish colonization. The first mission that dared to penetrate the dangerous wilderness and insect-infested jungles of what is southern Nueva Vizcaya today was by the Dominican Order in 1607. However, it was only two years later (1609) when a Dominican missionary coming from Pangasinan. Father Tomas Gutierez arrived to establish the first missionary settlement. This settlement was subsequently called YTUY which today actually comprises the towns of ARTIAO, DUPAX, BAMBANG and a part of the lgorot tribal lands to the west (now Kayapa). Originally these places were inhabited by the Aetas and Panuypuyes (Aritao), the Ilongots (Dupax and Bambang) and the lgorot in the area west from the present native population of Dupax, Aritao and Bambang came about by the inter-marriages of the tribes mentioned above.
