Inagta Rinconada (Mount Iriga Agta) is a
Bikol language spoken by a semi-nomadic hunter-gatherer
Agta (
Negrito) people of the
Philippines. It is spoken to the east of
Iriga City up to the shores of
Lake Buhi. The language is largely intelligible with
Mount Iraya Agta on the other side of the lake.
The Rinconada Agta live primarily in forests near rural barangays of
Buhi,
Iriga (including a settlement in the Ilian area), and
Baao in
Camarines Sur (Lobel 2013:68).[2]
