The Tao tribe (more correctly spelled Dawu or 達悟族, and often referred to as
the Yami (雅美族), the name given to them by the Japanese) are ethnically closer to
the Philippines than Taiwan, and likely arrived from the former around 800 years
ago. The Tao people refer to Orchid island as Pongso no Tao or “Island of the
People.” https://www.nickkembel.com/orchid-island-lanyu-taiwan/
