Outline of Final Research Achievements

Field trips were made to Yao communities in Thailand and Vietnam, as well as mainland China (Langshan, Hunan), in order to make precise records of their ritual practices and the ritual documents correlated to each phase of these practices. It has been revealed from our findings that the three groups of the Yao, now far apart from one another, share a transmitted system of ritual knowledge and still conduct parallel ritual practices in Southeast Asia and China. These findings have been made available on our website and through publications (Institute for the Study of Yao Culture News Letter, no.1-5; Kanagawa University Rekimin Research Report, vol. 12, 14, 17). Research members also conferred with other specialists on the issues of Yao ritual tradition at an international symposium at Changsha and a panel in the 64th Annual Meeting of the Folklore Society of Japan, and were invited to contribute their research results to international conferences.
