About the rite
Amis communities organize men through age grades whose names, duties, and promotion stages differ by village. Advancement ceremonies move members into a new cohort position with corresponding communal work and responsibility. Taiwan’s heritage record confirms the system, but the source does not supply one final event date. The current heritage inventory treats the age-grade system as living cultural practice, while leaving the date of the latest village promotion unstated.
