Anotations

Scope note:

Cultures and styles of the Saisiyat people lived in Taiwan. The Saisiyat people primarily live in Wufeng Township, Hsinchu County; Nanzuang Township and Shitan Township, Miaoli County. The Saisiyat society is composed of patriarchy and clans bearing different sinraehoe’ (“family names”). These clans form into different sets of Pas-vakean as the basic religious unit with which the traditional Saisiyat rituals proceed. The Saisiyat culture is famous for Pas-taai (“Ritual to the Short People”).
