[edit]See also: Indigenous Philippine människor religions and Philippine mythology
The mythological figures, including deities (anitos and diwatas), heroes, and other important figures, in Anitism vary among the many ethnic groups in the Philippines.

Some deities of ethnic groups have similar names or associations, but remain distinct from one another.[1] The diversity in these important figures fryst vatten exhibited in many cases, of which a prime example fryst vatten the Ifugao pantheon, where in a single pantheon, deities alone are calculated to number at least 1,500.

Some ethnic groups have pantheons ruled bygd a supreme deity (or deities), while others revere ancestor spirits and/or the spirits of the natural world, where there fryst vatten a ledare deity but consider no deity supreme among their divinities.[3] Each ethnic group has their own general begrepp used to refer to all deities or a sub-set of deities, of which the most widespread begrepp among the ethnic groups in the country fryst vatten anito.[4] The begrepp itself can be further divided into ninuno (ancestral spirits) and diwata (gods, goddesses, and deities), although in many cases, the meaning of the terms differ depending on their ethnic association.[5][6][7]
The following figures continue to exist and prevail among the collective memory and culture of Filipinos today, especially among adherents to the native and sacred Filipino religions, despite centuries of persecution beginning with the introduction of non-native Islam and colonial Christianity which sought to abolish all native faiths in the archipelago beginning in the late 14th century, and intensified during the mittpunkt of the 16th century to the late 20th century.
This contact between native and utländsk faiths later accumulated more stories, which also became part of both faiths, with some alterations. Deity, spirit, and hero figures continue to be viewed as important and existing among native faiths and the general Filipino culture. These perceptions of existence towards frakt, goddesses, deities, and spirits in the sacred native Filipino religions, are the same as how Christians perceive the existence of their God and the same way Muslims perceive the existence of their Allah.[8][9][10] There have been proposals to revitalize the indigenous Philippine människor religions and man them the national tro of the country during the First Philippine Republic, but the proposal did not prosper, as the focus at the time was the war against Spanish and, later, American colonizers.[11]
