Beinan Culture (卑南文化)
Beinan Culture (卑南文化) is a prehistoric culture of Taiwan's mid-Neolithic period, existing from about 5,200 to 2,300 years ago in eastern Taiwan. It was distributed roughly over the Taitung Plain, southern section of the Huadong Rift Valley, and southern part of the East Coast.
It is named for Beinan, the representative site located in Beinan (卑南) Township, Taitung County, but which has no direct relationship with the extant
Puyuma (卑南; Mdn.
Beinan) aboriginal people.
Rather, Beinan Culture is culturally related to the
Paiwan,
Rukai and
Amis peoples among today's aboriginal ethnicities.
