EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the early 1920s, four young women of the Atayal tribe, also known as the Tayal or Tayan people, pose confidently in their traditional attire against a lush, green backdrop. The women, based in the mountainous region to the north of the island of Formosa, now known as Taiwan, are dressed in square cloths woven from China grass, a material native to the area. The intricate geometrical designs on their clothing reflect the rich cultural heritage and unique artistic traditions of the Atayal people. At the time this photograph was taken, Formosa was under Japanese rule, and the Atayal tribe, like many other indigenous communities on the island, faced significant challenges as their lands and traditions were threatened by colonial expansion. Despite these challenges, the women in this image exude a sense of pride and resilience, showcasing the enduring strength and vitality of their ethnic identity. The photograph, taken in the 1920s, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, transporting us back to a time when traditional ways of life were still deeply rooted in communities across Asia. The sepia tones of the image add to its timeless quality, imbuing it with a sense of nostalgia and wonder. Today, the Atayal people continue to preserve their unique cultural heritage, ensuring that their traditions and stories are passed down from generation to generation. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of cultural preservation and the resilience of indigenous communities in the face of adversity.
