Its incredibly important to learn about the land and I encourage everyone to learn about Indigenous cultures locally and also globally when you travel to a new place. Nya:weh (thank you in Cayuga)

    There are 16 indigenous tribes that have been recognized by the government of Taiwan to this moment but they have more than 1,000 settlements or villages around the island. Their cultures and languages are various and sundry but there all belong to Austranesian people who spread the Pacific from Taiwan to Maori in New Zealand.
    According to the recent researches, Taiwan was the original place of Austranesian people because almost all the tribes in the Pacific can find their language elements in Taiwan and not only the number of 1 to 10 sounds similar but also the organs or features in the face like eyes are pronounced similar too.

    • @LayersOfJenn

    The mountain chicken has a better flavor because they are free to do exercise everyday, they are not restricted in the feeding room growing together. You can tell from its yellow skin color and more fat than regular chicken.

Other tribes have varying prints and styles for their wardrobe so maybe you could do a little visit to some of their other ones and document your experience and impressions. If you ever do, my tribes are the Bunun and the Rukai. Looking forward to more of your adventures!

    When I was in Taiwan in the 1990's, my uncle took me to a native tribes showcase village and he was able to talk to some of the elderly tribespeople in Japanese. Under Japanese occupation, they were forced to learn Japanese, but they did not learned Chinese after WWII.

    I grew up in the mountains, though probably not as grand as there. If you ever make a trip to the USA, I highly recommend a visit to the New River Gorge and to Snowshoe Mountain (both in WV). Amazing places in the Appalachian Mountains. Interesting thing at 9:09 - the man's vest has a swastika in the border - but I bet it's either Chinese or Buddhist symbolism (not the bad meaning). But what a cool experience to learn about the tribes and especially the bow and arrow.

    • @LayersOfJenn
      @LayersOfJenn  3 года назад

      Ohhh the Appalachian mountains would be amazing to get too! And yes actually the symbol for them is a representation of thunder and the thunder god. The other tribe is the gods eye or ancestors eye. The man giving the tour is from another tribe (not the two mentioned) but me married into one of the tribes for his wife❤️ He said that his tribe uses a rainbow as their tribe marker.

    Such pretty areas and I think the clouds made it even prettier.
    And yes, that kitty was too cute.
