The Harvest Festival of the Amis     The Amis is the biggest tribe in 'Taiwan. They live in the cast of Taiwan. Some Amis communities live along the rivers or near the ocean, so fishing is an important part of life for them.
There are many traditional ceremonies for the Amis, and one of them is the Harvest Festival. This festival is to celebrate the harvest of millet and rice and worship the ancestral spirits. In
the past, the main food of the Amis was millet, and the timing of the festival coincided with the harvest of millet. It's also a coming of age ceremony--a boy becomes an adult man. Besides,
it is a chance for single men and women to meet. For example, a young woman will give betel nuts to a man to show her affection.
    The Harvest Festival in each community is a little different ； it can last from one day to seven days. It is a window for other people to see the Amis culture. The singing and dancing activities are important parts of the festival. The Amis people have a great time together.
