Description

Timicheg was one of the Bontoc Igorots from the Philippines who were displayed in the so-called Philippine or Igorot Village, a human zoo at the World Exhibition in Ghent 1913. There he died as a result of the harsh living conditions. A century later the Belgian city gave his name to a new tunnel as part of a broader project at the train station Gent Sint-Pieters. (English and Dutch) Timicheg was één van de Bontoc Igorots uit de Filippijnen die werden tentoongesteld in het zogenaamde "Village Philippin", een zoo humain op de Wereldtentoonstelling in Gent 1913. Daar stierf hij als gevolg van de barre omstandigheden. Een eeuw later gaf de stad Gent zijn naam aan een nieuwe tunnel als deel van het ruimere Sint-Pietersstation project. (Nederlands en Engels)
