Burma / Myanmar: Jinghpaw (Kachin) singing hymns at a manau< / i> ceremonial ground (a manau< / i> is a traditional dance ceremony), Myitkyina, Kachin State (1998)
Caption:
Remarkable for their military prowess, their receptivity to Christianity, and their intricate all-embracing kinship network, the Kachins are a hardy mountain people living in the remote hills of northern Burma and on the peripheries of India and China.
. 'Kachin' is actually a Burmese word that does not exist in any of the local dialects. Each Kachin tribe has a different name for themselves and their neighbours, but no word to describe the whole group.
