英文摘要
The purpose of this study is to build up the basic information about the habitation culture of the Bunun tribe. The goal is to survey of the old location and scale of the Bunun in Lakulaku River watershed, as well as the research and compilation of literature and documents. The Lakulaku River watershed is the first location where the Bunun tribe settled after migrating from west to east. During the later period of the Japanese occupation, the Japanese enforced a mass relocation, and the old location was left unused. Researchers went into the mountains many times from July of 1998 to July of 1999, where they reached 14 clans of the Japanese occupation era, where they recorded and mapped out 51 clusters of old buildings, 241 buildings (structures). They completed a revision of the trail map, water source camp, and other basic itinerary databases. They also documented relics left behind by the Japanese. These survey records have already formed a basic database, which includes photos of individual research projects, videotapes, and other basic visual records, which serve references for future research. The researches also developed a methodology and tools that can be used to study old tribes, and evaluated the efficacy of these tools.
