Lloa is a group of

indigenous Formosan people living in the southern plain of Taiwan from Yunlin, Jiayi, to northern Tainan.[1] They have lived through the Dutch colonization of Taiwan, as well as the Manchurian occupation during the Qing dynasty.[2]

Lloa are generally classified together with the

Hoanya and Arikun as a single group, which idea has been rejected by some scholars and the indigenous people themselves.[2]
