ANGA Midterm Assignment Virtual Mumbaki

The document summarizes the differences and similarities between the Palawan's Tapayang Manunggul burial jar and the Ifugao's Bulul rice god figure in a Venn diagram. It compares their origins, materials, beliefs, appearances, and other characteristics. Both are human-like figures that are part of Philippine culture and serve to pacify important cultural practices, but they differ in their intended uses, placements, and physical properties. The Tapayang Manunggul is more fragile and used for burial rituals, while the Bulul is stronger and placed in rice granaries to ensure a bountiful harvest.
