The pottery pictured here are for storing water. Kano Tadao writes: ""Water for drinking or culinary use is always drawn from an open or artesian well inside the village.

Professor Chen Chi-lu writes [based on March 1959 fieldwork]: ""Among the Ami, pottery making is confined to women....The Ami make pottery by modeling. A lump of clay is shaped by hand in the form of the future pot. Then paddle and anvil are employed to continue the work of shaping it. The anvil, called arimoleh, is usually a round pebble (about 7 cm. in diameter) from a river bed; and the paddle (about 25-30cm wide, and 1-3cm thick) called asteteh, is made of wood. The pottery is modeled on a base, called langah....Then the pot is smoothed by hand with water. When finished, the pot is placed in the shade for four to five days, and then fired in an open space near the riverbank"" (Chen 1968, p. 110-111). The translated caption: ""Women making pots (Ami tribe).""

This same Kunanau headman also appears to be pictured in [wa0228] and [wa0152]. If Kasahara's dates are correct, the same Kunanau headman depicted here was an active participant in Japanese photography from as early as 1935 to as late as January, 1940.

They also use mortar and pestle for making rice cake. In the picture the couple wear their traditional costumes and pound millet at the same time. This seems very unusual. Probably they are just posturing for the sake of the photograph....Hunting pigs is the favorite game of Paiwan men, for pork is an exotic and delicious food, and its skin and teeth can be used for head ornaments. Therefore, as shown in the picture, they string the pig bones and hang them outside the house to signify the glory of their family"" (Tung 1996, p. 188).
