Anotations

Scope note:

Cultures and styles of the Tao people lived in Taiwan. The Tao people take residence on Orchid Island off the coast of Taitung. They primarily live on the subsistence of fish and taro crops, which are core to the Tao material culture. The Tao society is marked by monogamy and bilateralism. Their major festivals revolve around the traditional economy such as the crops of millet and taro and the annual catch of flying fish. Miyaron (“flying fish festival”) is their most renowned celebration.
