LahuThe 411,476 members of China's Lahu ethnic group live primarily in Yunnan's Lancang Lahu Autonomous County and neighboring counties such as Menglian. The Lahu language belongs to the Yi branch of the Tibeto Burman family of the sino Tibetan language system and until an alphabetical script was created in 1957, had no written form. As a result of frequent contact with the Han and Dai people, most of the Lahus can also speak Chinese and the language of the Dais. In ancient times, the lahu practiced their polytheistic religion. Since Mahayana Buddhism was introduced into china early in the Qing period, some lahus have been converted to it. There are also a small number of lahus who practice Christianity. The lahu trace their ancestry back to the ancient Qiang people, who immigrated to present day northern Yunnan from northwestern China early in the third century AD. This ethnic group has named themselves the lahu. LA means the tiger, and the HU means the method of roasting and eating. In their language, luhu means roasting tiger meat on a fire. This indicates their long history of hunting tigers. The lahus like their food spicy. Rice and corn are the staple grains of the two meals the lahu eat daily. Their characteristic method of roasting meat involves coating it with salt and spices and cooking it over an open fire between two bamboo sticks. Lahu meat has a distinctive and pleasing flavor, aroma, and yellow color. |
