The Bo people ({{zh|c={{linktext|僰|人}}|p={{linktext|Bó| rén}}}}) are a small minority population in Southern China, famous for their hanging coffins.[1]

History

The Bo people are native to southeastern Sichuan. In 1573 in Gong County, Sichuan, they were massacred by Ming imperial troops, and have disappeared from Gong County since then (Tapp 2003:69-70).[2]

However, some descendants of the Bo were found in 2005 in Xingwen County, Sichuan.[3][4][5][6]

Culture

Hanging coffins carved from a single log and bronze drums are widely found in the areas once inhabited by Bo people.[1][7][8]

Contemporary peoples

According to Edmondson (2003:165), the Lachi people of Vietnam and China may be descended from the Bo, based on the archaic exonym Labo (喇僰) in Chinese records.[9] The Lachi language belongs to the Kra subgroup of the Kra-Dai language family. Today, the Lachi refer to themselves as qu31 te341, with qu31 meaning 'people' (from Proto-Kra *khraC1 'people').[9]

The Ku of Qiubei County currently speak a Loloish language, and still practice hanging coffin traditions. According to their own records, the Ku people's ancestors had migrated from Yibin, Sichuan province a few centuries ago in order to escape wars.

Languages

Languages spoken by the Bo people(s) may have included:

  • Kra languages
    • Lachi language
  • Loloish languages
    • Ku language
    • Luoji language
  • Greater Bai languages
    • Caijia language
    • Longjia language

Words of Bo origin that still exist in the local dialect (tuhua 土话) of Gong County, Sichuan include máng máng 牤牤 or alternatively niōng niōng ('pig 猪'), and gà gà 尬尬 ('meat 肉') (Huang & Li 2006:25).
