Alfonso Lista, formerly known as Potia, officially the Municipality of Alfonso Lista is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Ifugao, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 34,061 people. [3]

History[]

It was created as the municipal district of Potia in 1955 from the barrios of Potia, Dolowog, San Juan, San Quintin, Cabicalan, Pinto, Busilac, Santa Maria, and Namillangan in the municipal district of Mayaoyao.[5] In 1959 the name was changed to Alfonso Lista to memorialize the first mayor.

Originally organized during the Osmena Commonwealth administration as a part of San Mateo, Isabela, the barangays which presently compose Alfonso Lista were transferred to Mayoyao (then a part of Mountain Province).
