A DANCE OF THE AMI GROUP : FORMOSA 



The Amis have discontinued head-hunting, but they still adhere to the old dances, which 

 originated in the festivities over the capture of heads. 



WOMEN WATER-BEARERS OF THE PEPO GROUP 



The members of this group are scattered over the broad tracts of level land in the 

 western parts of Formosa. They long had intercourse both with the Dutch and the Chinese. 

 Today they are scarcely distinguishable from the Chinese.
