Culture develops as a response to a society's condition and immediate solutions to the problems of individuals and groups.

Behavior patterns that constitute a specific culture are always genetically or biologically determined.

The view that one's group is superior compared to another is called socialization.

No society has the right to use its own values and norms as yardsticks to view the traits of another society.

Tangible heritage provides the physical space for the non-physical presence of culture.

The old colonial houses in Vigan, Ilocos Sur are examples of intangible cultural heritage of the Philippines.
