Manifestations of culture and cultural integrity in terms of artifacts and language of Indigenous People

The purposes of research were to ascertain the manifestations of culture and cultural integrity in terms of artifacts and language and the correlations between variables. Manifestations of culture were determined using frequency count. Cultural integrity was assessed using Likert scale and statistical mean. Manifestations of culture and cultural integrity were found to be correlated. Based on the findings and conclusion, it was recommended that cultural revitalization may be conducted by the indigenous people in collaboration with the barangay government, local schools, and other concerned organizations. Revitalization efforts may prioritize the production and enhancement of indigenous artifacts and the use and development of indigenous language. Future researchers on expressions and integrity of culture and similar topics may employ the methodology and the theoretical framework of this research either in an indigenous or a mainstream cultural setting. They may also include other elements of culture such as knowledge, beliefs, values, and norms as domains of manifestations of culture and cultural integrity.
