This activity offers a hands-on experience to help students understand Atayal culture. In Atayal mythology, the bow and arrow play a significant role in the legend of shooting down the sun and hold an important place in Indigenous hunting traditions. A skilled hunter must have their own bow and arrow. Traditionally, the bow and arrow were an essential part of Indigenous life—not only as a weapon for defending against external threats but primarily as a tool for hunting and gathering. They symbolize a man's ability to protect his tribe and ensure survival.
