The Hill tribes of Siam






Recently I have been researching different cultures around the world starting with the continent of Asia. What intrigued me most about this picture was the connections I saw with some African tribes that use rings around their neck to elongate them. Also, i found out that these tribes live in the hills of Siam and originally from Southwestern China. They refer to themselves as the "people of Blessing" because they thought the blessings of health, sufficient food and security were the greatest gifts that their creator could bestow.
