    Write a three paragraph essay describing the culture of the ethnic groups featured in the
    episode 3 of UCSP. Your essay should have an engaging introduction, supporting paragraphs
    and brief conclusion.

    The Culture is an identity of an individual from an ethnic group. Culture is a characterizing


    highlight of an individual's identity, adding to how they see themselves and the groups with
    which they recognize. Although the culture of an ethnicity might have significant similarities
    with the other other ethnicity, they are not entirely alike. They still might be one from beliefs,
    custom, and practices that may varies. Through the knowledge acquired about the different
    culture of the ethnic group you will be able to know one's identity. This essays starts with the
    ethnic groups that was featured in our lesson. It will then take a look at the culture of each
    ethnic groups. And later on, would know how culture differ from society to society.

    To show you how culture varies, from Subic, Zambales, the Aeta Sambal, despite of the huge
    change in different aspects, their culture never changed and was never forgotten. The most
    remarkable aspects I have noticed associated with the ethic group, Aeta Sambal, is that they
    live in the forest which makes them a forest-dwellers. Living in such an environment, they were
    taught how to survive to live in the forest without anything at all, which I found fascinating.
    They live as if they were one with the trees, animals and the nature itself. On one hand, the
    Aetas' culture were most likely to revolve around the world of survival in the wild. On the other
    hand, the ethnic group, Itneg or Tingyans from Penarrubia, Abra resorts to their traditional
    religious practices. Based on my own view from the videos, the Tingyans most interesting
    features is that they give importance to sacrifices or rituals. They believe that these rituals is a
    connection that would connect them to the world of Anito and Diwata. And one of the most
    important rituals the Tingyans do is the Pīnáing or to sacrifice Pīnáing. The ceremony or offering
    and also what they called Rituals gives me the idea that Tingyans believe in Supernatural
    phenomenon and beings. While in Kiangan, Ifugao they give their utmost importance or care to
    their land and their crops. But what amazed me the most is their idealistic eye-opening
    traditional culture. They have this customs or culture where when one become wealthy, or
    what they called Kadangyan, they will be responsible or obligated to provide help to those who
    aren't well-off or those who are in need of it. Additionally, every improvements or
    developments in their society would be a reason for them to celebrate, where everyone in the
    community would join the celebration of one's family achievement. To make it short, one's
    achievement is equivalent to everyone's achievements or community celebration.

    Culture may serve as an identity of ethnicity of an individual as also it differs from society to
    society. Cultural identity is the appellation of this identity. And to point out as to why having
    knowledge of other's cultures is important, I will leave here a quotation. As a blogger points out
    in "CultureShocks Blog", "..., so to understand their culture is to understand them". Meaning, if
    you understand one's culture you will know their ethnicity. Notwithstanding its characteristic
    worth, culture gives significant social and financial advantages.
