Live: Tracing the roots of the Wa ethnic group in SW China 

THE culture look like those of Arunachal tribles of india

Yes sir. Everything down to the historical traditions of chopping off heads of other tribes for sport. They are related and can be found in Myanmar and NE India as well.

Actually north east has more connections to south east Asia and parts of China when it comes to culture and food habits……my Ahoms tribe eats red ants eggs during our festivals and do ancestor’s veneration called Me dam Me phi in Laos Vietnam it’s called Satsana phi like the dai thai and other tribal communities of south east Asia

My first king chaolung Suikapha came from Nanchao China

​@@Pankajsaikiaindiayeah agree but only Myanmar or Vietnam because we nagas use middle Chinese and old Chinese in our language making is part of the sino-tibetan family group

Yes Nagas are undoubtedly Chinese and came to the Indian subcontinent 1000 years ago as migrants ….this is proven in Archeology and Anthropology studies

Bring me 🙏🙏🙏

@@ghungroogangatesh3549 we are indigenous to our land it wasn't india's land

@@nananananana3899 get out from greater Bangladesh chaprichpd তোর মায়রে আই চুদবাম

FYI the Wa tribe also practised head hunting.

Oh my goodness....😭 I'm sure my ancestors migrated from this tribe 😭 all the culture are closely associate to Nagas especially Konyak Naga

@@shangtuuk4047 if you are naga people mean you are different from Wa , because naga people blood belong to tibeto-burman anyway wa people belong to mon-khmer group, so blood very different

@@user-lv8ny2cp9e konyak Nagas live in district called Mon

@@nagatv8399 Mon-khmer people realated to ancient Nagas race but Naga at NE india and burma their naga name derive from Na ka have different meaning brother, Ancient austroasitic people king when they rule the land they announce themself as Naga king or from original austroasitic word is sdach Rong. Rong is original language and naga is sangskrit but naga land people they are different.

LACK OF CULTURE KNOWLEDGE REPORTER SHOULD NOT SHARE THEIR POINT OF VIEW. SHE CAN NOT SPEAK ENGLISH PROPERTLY.

This is why we're called the Tibeto-Burman tribe. We all were one people once, we're all brothers and sisters.

Naga of Myanmar, India.were migrated from Yunnan province of China as historical touch us by our forefathers.

Search Sanxingdui, you will find the artifacts found there are very similar to some naga tribes.

The chinese have their own. They are han and have sinitic branch linguistically. Nagas are tibeto burman branch which has its own group(Tibet, Burman and some south east asian). CULTURALLY, Nagas(including the other tibeto burman branch group) are more similar to Southeast asian compared to chinese(han ). GENETICALLY, the Tibeto Burman groups are more distant to east Asians(Chinese) as compared to South east Asian. So we are not from china in a sense and has a more complex origin from various regions like Southeast Asia,Tibet, Burma region. ALSO THE WA TRIBE MENTIONED HERE, LINGUISTICALLY THEY ARE AUSTROASIATIC BRANCH SO THEY HAVE a common (NEARER)ANCESTOR TO MOST SOUTH EAST ASIANS AND THE KHASIS OF MEGHALAYA rather than the Nagas.

Very true

Shhhh don't let CCP know about it. They might claim our land too 🤪🤪🤪 as they are already claiming Arunachal

@@sendong8485 why should we be afraid of CCP! Instead I would be glad if they address in mainstream medias to make aware of their netizens. But I never think this might happen.

@@sura_jongs it will never happen but shouldn't we be afraid of CCP? 😂😂😂 Tibet, Hongkong and now they are eying Taiwan. If they make a move towards Taiwan, US will be forced to act and we all know what might happen next 🤪🤪🤪

@@sendong8485 you have been brainwashed by American missionaries.

Yunaan province is historically and culturally basically part of south east asia and some of it is also Tibetan land... the Chinese just renamed it Yunaan after annexing it . The ethnic minorities in Yunaan are closely related to ethnic minority tribes in Burma. Tibetan land( the size of western europe) , on the other hand, was divided into 6 different Chinese provinces including Yunaan province which is the province where most of China's ethnic minorities live including the Wa people.

china is cradle of Eastern civilization . no doubt every chinese looking people be it Nepali , bhutia or northeasterns or south east asia all have roots and migrated from china and Mongolia area.

I forgot who I am writing too sorry lol …. Hey tell me more of the Naga! I just tracked whom I think was a tribe in the lead of the biblical Israelite horde during the Joshua years and this group is identical to the kagani of New Caledonia whom are the tribe I was tracking using history and symbol reading. That search led me to a place in India called Karnataka, whose flag has all the symbolism i was tracking with all in one package. Forgive my ignorance of India but is the Naga peoples close or related to this Karnataka people? I am just in love with these cultures and long to taste the air they breath someday. Much love love love!

Most southeast Asian ancestors came from naga looking tribes. The nanman ans buyu were tatted people. Same with dai people and li people. They had tattoo. Theres alot north asian who migrated south over thousands of year and they may have brought or traded ideas and culture or influence like shaman drums, chokers, feather head dresses

@@AntiQris no nagas are from North East India and karnataka is in South West india completely different race and culture. Nagas are more like these wa people racially and culturally if u want a comparison

Yes they very like nagas in North East India Burma

same people

Bro were called Naga(s) from Nagaland. Nagamese is a made up language ( lingua franca) to communicate with the Assamese people in the past and even other tribes within Nagaland itself.

Kachin are kuki

Wa is mon-khmer different from naga who is tibetan-burman

@@user-lv8ny2cp9e Nagas are not Tibetan nor from Burma.

@@painteddreamz4757 Northeast india almost people run from southern china, southern china have only 4 blood different 1 is mon-khmer, 2 is tai kradai, 3 is sino-tebetan, 4 is hmong mien, so if you are not tibetan so among this 4 group what is your race? Or you are mon-khmer blood same as WA people?

@@painteddreamz4757 your naga is derive from Na ka different from ancient naga race at northern india who is mon-khmer blood, but what i supprise is your culture same wa .

That's why I always feel that we are living under the colonial rules of India now. We, the people of North East India are totally different from other Indians.

@@pynkmensumer8115 same here as dayak people from Borneo. They called as the head hunter. The malaysian side of borneo (not the indonesian one) still search for freedom bcs of exclusion of Malaysian government

Sitting on a casual Monday morning just chatting with the king of the world-Vlad about far eastern people migrations and folk singing… bucket list box checked!

Same brother. I am from northeast i know my people are from china not india.

I am from Tibetan background though

Yes Nagas are undoubtedly Chinese and came to the Indian subcontinent 1000 years ago as migrants ….this is proven in Archeology and Anthropology studies

@Adipurush we will take back ladakh and Arunachal too.

@@helcurt2509LoL 🤣 you can't do nothing

if you're from Naga.. I suggest to learn about Indigenous people in Southeast Asia such as Indonesia, Philippines and Malaysia.. Naga Culture is much closer to indigenous in the Philippines.

​@@ColoniaMurder20 ya I was shock to see igorots tribe of Phillipines so similar with nagas

I'm also Meitei from Imphal, Manipur.

Do you know Dianxi Xiaoge?

I am also a meitei. Lets find out

Please let us know which ethnic group you are refering to. I would like to do more research on this. Kindly help

Meiteis are descended from pong kingdom, present day kachin n karen people living between yunnan and Thailand border. Before meitei immigration, only moirangs, lois, kakching, andros, and kabuis, etc were original settlers of manipur. Meitei king captured moirang kingdom and amalgamated all the kindred tribes of moirangs

And even th skull

If you listen to their conversation, they said they no longer live in the village anymore. Looks like the village has turn into a tourist attractions. I guess that's how their government helps to alleviate poverty.

But Nagaland people they don't like Chinese🇨🇳!!!

In a few years Nagaland will become just like Arunachal pradesh a puppet state of India🇮🇳.

India won’t allow it😡

But yes Entire north east belongs to mongoloids………..our food and ancient culture before taking Hinduism was similar to those of China and South east Asia

@@Pankajsaikiaindia Naga people probably part of "Hundred Yue" in english "Hundred Barbarian" in chinese history.. Southern China were originally populated by people in Southeast Asia today.

same as formosan in taiwan and igorot in the philippines

That's amazing. Wang means king in Chinese.

​@@elvishassassin1in konyak too wang/angh means king

Angh and wang is same , wangnao ,anghnao etc

And head hunt

Nagas may be coming from this side when we look to geography

Greater Nagaland,

Greater Nagalim should include these parts of China.

This is belong to mon-khmer family, wa is a mon-khmer family too

With us Mizo? not as much as the Nagas. But still i believe we originated from Yunnan many years ago.

@@johnylalrina1451 Yunaan is a fabricated place. It did not exist before the CCP takeover of China. Basically, ethnic minorities living next to South east asian border were all lumped together and a province was created. Tibetans in places like Shangri-la ( now part of Yunaan) were incorporated into Yunaan. Tibetan areas was divided into 6 different provinces by the CCP for instance. Prior to Chinese invasion, Tibetans had 3 provinces. The North east indian like tribal minorities including Mizo people more likely have more in common with Burmese and perhaps Laotian and other South east asian people than Han Chinese people culturally and lifestyle wise. You just have to look at minority tribes in places even like Malaysia and even there, you might see somethings that remind you of Naga or Mizo people.

​@@pinkymoon5039 yes Mizos are more relatable to the mara tribe of Myanmar

@@pinkymoon5039 welp study some history yunnan was ruled by song , ming and qing even before the republic of China and people republic of China ....

@@pinkymoon5039 I did a lot of research and nagas, mizos and meiteis don't have any related blood or dna to burmese and South East Asia and also average nagas, mizo and meiteis have 10 to 19 percent thai dna only most of meites have han Chinese dna while nagas and mizo have Chinese, Vietnamese and manchu Chinese dna and only 1percent of the people have khmer dna so they are very less related to South East Asia

Mara tribe from Mizoram(India) and Chin State(Myanmar) also called Ti (Water)

Do we have kamie in mayanmar

They used to cut people's heads off for sport and war. These are the subdued Wa.

Different blood brother

@@user-lv8ny2cp9e no it's not especially we are not even well colonized also

@@Nagalim7890 why WA language belong to mon-khmer family while Naga language is belong to Tibetan-burman family?

try search on youtube about "Nanman: the Lost Tribe of South China DOCUMENTARY". all mentioned about the documentary will found in southeast asia region.

Do mizos have those log drum culture? Nagas still practice hitting log drum kept in village morung. We also pull those log for log drum in similiar manner.

No Doubt They Have The Same Root Event Cambodian Ethnic Group

@@Kangshou_Chang not anymore but some small villages still do
