簡介:" 傳統阿美族的載負方式除使用扁擔外,就是使用雙肩背型的背籃。以籐、竹編製而成的背籃,是往來攜帶運送物品的編器。 在阿美族社會中,編器為日常生活裡盛置和運輸的重要器具,這個相當發達的編器工藝,最主要是自給自足的基本需求。 隨著大環境社會的改變,編器材料也大量的採用多色彩的尼龍纖維為素材,其特性是較籐、竹材料便宜、方便、易大量取得;晚近也出現有阿美族女性在編器的領域裡活動。 Amis-Back basket -Ethnology-原住民-民族誌-標本-阿美-背籃T raditionally Amis carried things on poles and in baskets carried on both shoulders. The baskets were woven from rattan and bamboo strips. In traditional society, the baskets were important objects for placing and carrying things. This highly developed handicraft was used mainly to supply people's own needs. As the environment has changed, the material used in woven items began to change to multi colored nylon strips because it is cheaper and more easily accessible than rattan and bamboo. Women have also begun to engage in weaving."
