Indigenous Philippine Arts

 ManunggulJar is one of the known indigenous arts in the Palawan. It islikewise

considered as one of the national treasures of the Philippines. This 2800 years old jar
was founded by Dr. Robert b. Fox and Miguel Santiago in 1962
 This Tapayan (jar) is a secondary burial jar found in Tabon cave, one of the
Manunggul caves in Palawan. It is used by ancient people of Palawan in burying their
deaths around 890-710 B.C. It features a vessel carrying two human figures in sitting
position with one behind steering the boat and the other waiting to reach the afterlife.

 The Bulul or bul-ul is a carved Anito figure of the Ifugao who represents their
ancestral spirit and granary god. It is carved wooden figure from narra tree
and it used to guard the rice crop from rats, thieves, and spoilage by the
Ifugao people of the northern province.
 According to Ocampo (2016), the bulul was created by a deity known as
Humidhid who lives in Daiya.
 “Humidhid was disturbed by the crying of a narra tree that wanted to be
carved into bulul. He cut the tree and made several bulul that he brought into
his house. When these bulul became too demanding of food and wine, he
threwthem intothe riverwherethey floateddownstream toLagudandwere
forgotten. Many years later, Humidhid’s daughter, Bugan, followed her lime
container that fellinto the river and reached Lagud where itwas returned to
her by a bulul. They fell in love, got married and had children. One of the
children of Bugan and the bulul went upstream to visit Humidhid, who realized
that the bulul had become human (or rather half-human). He advised his
grandchildren to carve bulul whenever they travelled to earth for protection.
So it came to be that one of Humidhid’s grandchildren carved bulul out of a
narra tree, and it later demanded too much food and drink. Humidhid
appeared to his grandchild in a vision and advised that the bulul be given a
separate house. Thus were bulul placed in granaries” (Ocampo, 2016).
