  6. The Three Ps Products: things created by members of the culture, both tangible (a house, a painting, an eating utensil, a piece of literature) and intangible (a system of education, a ritual, an oral tale, a dance)

  7. The Three Ps • Perspectives: traditional ideas, attitudes, meanings, and values of members of that society (social hierarchy). Note that some perspectives have been lost even though there may be practices and products reflected of that former perspective.
