Panel from the Paiwan tribes

A noble ancestor, skilled hunter, and vigorous warrior… This medium-sized Paiwan panel features a highly stylized ancestor mounted on a deer, symbolizing his excellence in hunting — a trait that implies his ability to provide not only for his family but even for the entire village. His head is topped with two eagle feathers, representing strength, and surrounded by a snake, the emblem of noble lineage.
