National Treasure (Pulacan)
A National Treasure (Nahuatl: X, SePala: Y) is a tangible site, artifact or cultural work deemed to have pre-eminent value by the government of Pulacan. There are eighteen National Treasures, kept consistent since their first introduction in 1961. It is the highest such designation issued by the Secretariat of Cultural Affairs. The number of artifacts is significant, corresponding with the number of months in the Nahua calendar used in Pulacan. In addition to being of significant historical or cultural value, a National Treasure must also in some way correspond to one of eighteen "national values" drawn up by the Secretariat. As such, the designation of certain National Treasures has generated some controversy.
