About this title
With their unusual boundary gates, annual Swing Festival and exotic
costumes, the Akha are one of the most colorful mountain-dwelling peoples in
Southeast Asia. Over the centuries they have developed a rich and complex
culture that provides customs and behavioral rules for all of life's possible
contingencies. Originating in China's Yunnan Province, the Akha spread into
Vietnam, Laos, Burma and Thailand and in recent generations have been subjected
to the vicissitudes of war, revolution and modernization. In spite of such pressures
they have managed to maintain the basic values and tenets of a
thousand-year-old tradition.
