Anap, meaning "to find out," is the general name for the Kankanay
divination ceremonies. Three methods are used.
The mambunong puts tapuy in a glass and prays, asking the gods to
show what caused the sickness and what ceremony should be celebrated
to effect its cure. He then looks into the tapuy where he sees
something indicating the cause of the sickness and the ceremony to
be celebrated. This method corresponds to the Nabaloi bakno.
A stone is suspended by a string, the mambunong prays, the various
rituals are named; if the stone moves at the mention of a ceremony,
that one must be celebrated. This method corresponds to the Nabaloi
sabat.
An egg is stood on end on the ground, the rituals are named, and
the one to be given is determined by the falling of the egg. This
corresponds to the buyon of the Nabaloi, except that the latter use
a stick instead of an egg.
The examination of the gall of a chicken is used to determine whether
or not one will be lucky in doing a certain thing, or whether a sick
person will recover. This divination is called manman.
