Who they are

The Duota live in Mojiang and Yuanjiang counties in southern Yunnan Province, China. In the 1950s, the Chinese authorities classified them as Hani, but they have always seen themselves as a distinct tribe. Hani is their main language. The vast majority follow traditional religions, with small Christian and nonreligious minorities. Their largest festival, Kuzhazha or the Sixth Moon Festival, falls in June and lasts from three to six days.
