Northern Tsou people

Japanese: 北ツォウ族 - きたつぉうぞく
Northern Tsou people

...On the other hand, compared to the Atayal people who are sociable and easily express their emotions, the Bunun people tend to be sulky and work silently.
[Northern Tsou]
The North Tsou, to the west of the Bunun, also have a three-tiered patrilineal clan organization, and although their administrative system seems somewhat simplified, there is no fundamental difference between them. However, the tribal political, military, and religious-magical unity, which is probably strengthened through the tribal chief and the men's meeting hall (which also serves as a head shrine) located in the main village, is much more prominent. While their lifestyle is somewhat similar to that of the Bunun, greater importance seems to be placed on the qualifications and skills of warriors and hunters.

[北ツォウ族]
 ブヌン族の西隣の北ツォウ族にも3段がまえの父系氏族組織が見いだされ,ブヌン族のそれを多少簡略化したような運営方式を思わせるけれども,基本的には大差がないといえようが,部族の首長および同じく部族のいわば本村に所在する男子集会所(兼首級祭屋)を通じておそらく強化された部族の政治的・軍事的かつ宗教呪術的な結束がはるかに目だつ。ブヌン族とある程度まで似かよった生活態度も認められながら,戦士および狩猟者としての資格技量がいっそう重視されるように見受けられる。…
