Description:
A Study of the Palaungs of the Shan States
The Home of an Eastern Clan is a detailed study on all aspects of life and culture of the Palaungs of the Shan States. This study, which was researched in the 1910's and published in 1924, deals for most part with the Katur tribe of the Palaungs. They live in or near Namhsan, the capital of Tawngpeng, which was nominally a Shan State but which was governed by a Palaung chief then, and inhabited almost entirely by Palaungs. The Palaungs are a mon-Khmer speaking group (as are the Lamet of Laos).
