The district our school belongs to is located in Wanrung Township
Jianqing Village. The name of our
tribe is Sinbaiyang Tribe, and almost the entire
population consists of Truku people. The Truku are
an aboriginal people that reside in the mountainous
regions of Taiwan, and are known for their hunting
and weaving traditions. During the Japanese
occupation, all aboriginal tribes that practice
face-painting were commonly referred to as the
Atayal, but as times changed and historical lapses
created cultural differences such as language,
rituals, dress and cuisine, the Truku were formally
renamed, and became the twelfth branch of Taiwanese
aboriginal peoples. This article introduces the
various aspects of Truku culture, “history and
geography,” “language culture,” “social structure,”
and “rituals and ceremonies,” in order to clarify
the origins of the naming of the Sinbaiyang Tribe,
their migration history, geographical location,
local industries, and important historical events.
