A Katu Loincloth
About the Item
The Katu people have live in Laos for many centuries, but their exact origins are relatively unknown. The historical background and origin of this ethnic group is similar to those of other members of the Mon-Khmer language group. Many researchers believe that the Katu migrated from southeast India and southeast parts of China. In these regions, there are still people who speak Mon-Khmer languages such as the Moondah and Koln people
Presently, the majority of Katu live in the southern provinces of Laos such as Kaleum, Darkcheung, and Thataeng districts of Sekong province; Laongam districts of Salavan province, and Paksong and Bachiengchalernsook of Champasak province. In addition, Katu ethnic people also live in Vietnam in Quang Nam, Danang, and Theua Thian Hue provinces.
The total population of Katu people living in Laos is 17,024 people, of which 8,653 are females. The Katu share 0.4% of the country total population, according to the second population census 1995.
