Accrual Method Donation Accrual Periodicity Irregular Accrual Policy Passive Custodial History The National Taiwan University Department of Anthropology’s collection can be traced back to 1928, when the Ethnoarchaeology Seminar was established at Taihoku Imperial University. The components, primarily gathered between 1920 and 1960, include over 10,000 articles of quotidian commodities, ritual utensils, field images of Taiwan’s indigenous peoples, and hundreds of thousands of prehistoric artifacts unearthed at various archaeological sites in Taiwan. Since 2002, the Department has been a member of the National Digital Archives Program and has been in the process of digitizing and re-identifying its collection components—a process that confers a multifaceted significance upon cultural heritage in an information society.
