Angadanan, officially the Municipality of Angadanan (Ilocano : Ili ti Angadanan; Tagalog : Bayan ng Angadanan; or Angadanan Nuevo), is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Isabela, Philippines. At the 2020 census, it had a population of 44,977. ^[3]

Etymology

The town derived its name from the nearby Angaranan Creek. This creek, a notable geographical feature of the area, played a significant role in the early development and identity of the settlement. The creek's presence influenced the local ecosystem, provided a water source for both people and livestock, and likely served as a critical landmark for the town's first inhabitants. The decision to name the town after Angaranan Creek reflects the community's connection to the natural landscape and highlights the importance of the creek in the town's history and daily life.

History

The town of Angadanan was initially founded in the mid-18th century as a settlement in present-day Nueva Vizcaya, between the towns of Bagabag and Bayombong. In 1776, the Spaniards decided to move the settlement further north in present-day Isabela province along the Ganano river, a tributary of the Cagayan River. In the 19th century, the Spaniards decided to move the town again six kilometers further east to its present location along the Cagayan River to facilitate better transportation links and to secure the town from repeated raids by the Igorots and Gaddangs. The second site was subsequently known as Angadanan Viejo (Old Angadanan) and the current site called Angadanan Nuevo (New Angadanan) until the former was converted into a separate municipality in 1949 named Alicia and the Nuevo was dropped from its official name. ^[5]
