Description
of the Jar
Manungul
jar also represent Filipino values
of respect for one's soul,
compassion, nationalism and
faith. As a result, the jar
has served as a vivid reminder of
the country's rich history and
culture since its existence in the
late Neolithic period.
Purpose of
the Jar
a. To the early Filipino
people
Despite the cultural
diversity of the Filipino
people, the Manunggul
jar served
as evidence of their
shared heritage
with their Austronesianspeaking ancestors. It is
found by
regions and various Filipino
ethnolinguistic groups.
Early Filipinos believed that a
man is composed of a body,
a life force called ginhawa,
and a kaluluwa (soul) which
explains why the design of
the cover of the Manunggul
Jar featured three faces —
the soul, the boatman, and
the boat itself.
b. Present generation
Manunggul jar served as a
representation of the National
Museum’s responsibility in
preserving the Philippines’
rich cultural legacy. It was
also a potential proof of how
art can reflect a country’s
history, tradition and culture,
no matter how simple or
intricate its form is.
