The Paiwan (Payuan) are an indigenous people of Taiwan, who live in the Central Mountain Range, from Damumu Mountain and the Wuluo River in the north to the Hengchun Peninsula in the south. According to a myth, Paiwan ancestors lived in a location on Dawu mountain (Tawushan) that was called Paiwan, where heaven was said to exist. Paiwan people have spread out from this place, so the name of the original site was assumed as their group name. According to some, Paiwan also means 'human being'.

The social system of the Paiwan consists of three levels: the nobility (aristocrats and landowners), the second-rank nobility, and the ordinary people. Only members of the first rank had the privilege of owning works bearing the sacred motifs of the serpent or the human figure, both considered to represent ancestors. Sculpture is the chartered way for Paiwan aristocrats to distinguish their houses, perceived as the incarnation of the social status, authority, privileges, and existence of a fundamental entity of society.

排灣族是臺灣原住民族之一,現今的分佈區域主要橫跨中央山脈,北起武洛溪上游大武山一帶,向南延伸至恆春半島。相傳,排灣那裏是天堂。「排灣」意思為「人」,也是排灣族的官方族群名稱。

排灣族的社會制度分為三個層次:貴族(貴族和地主)、二等貴族和普通民眾。貴族以上階級有裝飾上的特權,例如熊鷹羽毛、琉璃珠、特殊圖案(人頭紋、百步蛇紋等)。而人和蛇都被認為是代表祖先。雕塑是排灣貴族區分房屋的特許方式,被視為社會地位、權威、特權和社會基本實體存在的化身。
