Edward Norbeck offers a translation of folk tales of the Atayal, a tribe from the island of Taiwan. Norbeck presents the possibility that these tales are related to the mythology of other Indonesian and southeast Asian groups, especially the mountain tribes of Luzon, in the Philippines.

From 1929 to 1960 about 50% of the eleven different groups of Malayo-Polynesian peoples became Protestant Christians "Pentecost of the Hills" utilizes history,politics, sociology, anthropology and missiology to tell their story for the first time.
