Palaung
Nota de aplicación
Culture of the tribal hill people of the Shan region and adjacent areas of eastern Myanmar (Burma), as well as southwestern Yunnan province of China. Some Palaung groups are organized in patrilineal lineages similar to those of the Kachin, their neighbours to the north; elsewhere their organization is more like that of the Shan. Shan-type Buddhism coexists with various local cults based on ancestor worship.
