Austronesian Hall
The exhibition Austronesian Worlds, Worldly Austronesias, divided into six sections — Kita Us, Understanding, Bordering, Exchanging, Communicating, and Identifying — shows the diversity of island cultures from the perspective of Austronesian Peoples and highlights the unique interactions among people of different islands and cultures from the perspective of world history. Taiwan has long been a major node of human migration and cultural encounters. The exhibition is about the interwoven stories of Taiwan and the Austronesian worlds.
Austronesian Worlds, Worldly Austronesias
Austronesian Worlds, Worldly Austronesias is a permanent exhibition on the continual movements and entangled stories of different ethnic groups across diverse Austronesian worlds. Located on the Pacific Ocean, Taiwan has long been an important node of human migrations and cultural development. This exhibition is not about “the Others.” Rather, it concerns the Austronesian worlds in which we live and worldly Austronesias engaged in complex negotiations with global forces.
