The Religion Of The Dayaks, And The Political, Social And Religious Constitution Of The Natives On The West Coast Of Formosa (1866) is a book written by William Lobscheid. It provides a comprehensive study of the Dayak people's religion and the political, social, and religious constitution of the natives on the west coast of Formosa. The book is divided into three parts. The first part explores the religious beliefs and practices of the Dayak people, including their creation myth, their beliefs about the afterlife, and their rituals and ceremonies. The second part examines the political and social organization of the natives on the west coast of Formosa, including their system of government, their laws and customs, and their social hierarchy. The third part focuses on the religious constitution of the natives, including their beliefs about the supernatural and their practices of worship. The book is based on Lobscheid's personal observations and experiences while living among the Dayak people and the natives on the west coast of Formosa. It provides a valuable insight into the culture and traditions of these indigenous people and their way of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
