Thaw (邵族) year ceremonies (lus'an) Taiwan aboriginal group

Glad to have chance to attend Thaw (邵族) year ceremonies(lus'an). Do you know Thaw? They are one of Taiwan indigenous people, about 800 people, and most lived around the Sun Moon Lake. The year ceremonies usually held at lunar calender August. The schedule followed by group people discussing, could be one month, or several dates, or skip the year. "Piakalingkin" could be the most heard in the Thaw year ceremonies, it meant bless you all well.

Piakalingkin!


很榮幸能參加邵族年祭(lus'an)(祖靈祭). 您知道邵族嗎? 他們是台灣原住民族的一支, 人數約800人, 多數世居於日月潭周邊. 邵族年祭(祖靈祭)通常在農曆八月舉行. 時程由族人們討論, 可能會舉行一個月, 或數天, 或跳年(隔年再辦). Piakalingkin 可能是您在邵族年祭聽到最多的話語, 它的意思是祝福您一切好. Piakalingkin!
