about

2 DARK BLUE YAO (MOON) CEREMONY 5.10
chanted recitation with drum, man dancing with small bells with shamanic prayers, to forecast the fate of someone in Soumpxai village, OU TAI, PHONGSALY June 2010
I guess that the LANTENE (A2) got a Laotian name for being in Laos for a while, this community of MOON live in more remote conditions and did not get the Lantene name. An animist/taoist ceremony is taking place gathering only men in order to get better, a shaman engages in the casting of spells and fortune telling, MOON men are supposed to be literate in ancient Chinese and Taoist texts are being copied by hand for this occasion.
