Akha - Akazoku (English spelling)
The Ko people are a mountain tribe living in the northern border area of ​​Thailand and Laos. They originated in Yunnan, China, and speak a Tibeto-Burman language. They are semi-nomadic slash-and-burn farmers, and their main crop is upland rice. They also cultivate millet and beans, and hunt. They live in villages on the highlands and have a patrilineal society. Villages consist of 10-200 households, and are headed by a hereditary village chief. The chief's powers are limited, and he may seek advice from elders, shamans, or a family council when making important decisions. There may be 10-20 people living in a household, but often there are fewer than that. The head of the household has great authority within the family, and family members follow his orders. Clans live in separate areas, and each has its own burial ground.
