古樹前的排灣族首領

[英文]The writing on the back of this photograph indicates that the man pictured in front of the large tree is a headman, or @tomoku@ 頭目. The attire, raised slate architecture, and positioning of the tree are typical of many Paiwan area plazas. For examples, see Mori Ushinosuke$s photos of @Pabauba@ (Mori 1918:1, pl. 57) and @Rapal@ (Mori 1918:1, pl. 79).
