This Cache is quite easy to find.
It is the Original home of the Travel Bug Bulol
(TB14Z8A).
The bulol, or "Ifugao rice god" is a carved human figurine into
which a certain class of anito (fairy or spirt) is said to
incorporate itself when worshipped. Bulols are kept in the house or
granary, and are usually made in pairs. They are carved of narra
wood, which represents wealth, happiness, and well-being. Every
step in their production requires a ceremony, from tree selection
to arrival at the owner's house; a consecrated bulol has been
bathed in pig's blood, had myths recited to it, and received
offerings of wine, ritual boxes, and rice cakes.
FTF Prize is a wooden carved Bulol from the Philippines.
