Niaosung culture
The Niaosung culture (Chinese: 蔦松文化; pinyin: Niǎosōng Wénhuà) was an archaeological culture in southern Taiwan. It distributed around the region of Tainan and Kaohsiung. The culture existed in the Iron Age[1] of Taiwan island. Some evidences suggested that Niaosung Culture was directly relative to the Siraya people,[2] an aboriginal tribe which is still living in this area.
There is a set of several archaeological sites formed the culture, such as the Niaosung Site (蔦松遺址), Futingchin Site (覆頂金遺址), Hsiliao Site (西寮遺址) and Kanhsi Site (看西遺址).[citation needed] Some were discovered in the archaeological research excavations, and some in other works such as digging fish farms or building factories. These sites had been excavated out potteries or middens.[3]
