==Etymology== Pantabangan (Pantabanganan in early 18th century), may have come from the Ilongot root word sabangan or sabanganan ("junction of water streams"). Toponyms in the area are also from Ilongot, like Caanaoan, Puncan, Cadanglaan (now Carranglan), Kabaritan (now San Jose City) and others. Bungamong (Bongabon) and Cadanglaan were formerly sitios of Pantabangan, while Kabaritan was also part of the modern town.
