The Island Mosaic is an exhibition that seeks to showcase the glaring achievements of archaeology in Taiwan while exploring further into some of the yet unanswered puzzles. Until the end of the Pleistocene (commonly known as the Ice Age), the island of Taiwan remained connected to the East Asian continent. Archaeologists have continuously endeavored to refine their interpretation of Taiwan with newly discovered archaeological materials, and this exhibition is a showcase of how all the different generations of inhabitants learned to adapt to this island as well as the evolution of life in Taiwan.
