==Name==
Antique was one of the three ''sakup'' (districts) of Panay before Spanish colonizers arrived on the islands. The province was known at that time as ''Hantík'', the local name for the large black ants found on the island. The Spanish chroniclers, influenced by the French, recorded the region's name as ''Hantique'', which was then read as 'antique (silent 'h'). The locals then pronounced the name into its present name "Antique" (än-ti-ké)
