The National Museum of Prehistory (NMP; Chinese: 國立臺灣史前文化博物館; pinyin: Guólì Táiwān Shǐqián Wénhuà Bówùguǎn) is located in Taitung City, Taitung County, Taiwan.

In 1980, during the construction of the South-Link Line, building work uncovered prehistoric remains on the Beinan Site (卑南遺址).

For 10 years, a National Taiwan University-led team excavated the 10,000 m2 (110,000 sq ft) site and uncovered over 1,500 burials and tens of thousands of artifacts.

Trial operations began on July 10, 2001, and the museum officially opened on August 17, 2002.
