Description: Translation (Seng Pan) Now I am going to tell you about the story of siblings, Jinghpaw, Hkang and Wa. Not only in Jinghpaw society but also in their societies, the stories of siblings were told. According to the stories which our ancestors told Jinghpaw, Hkang and Wa were close brothers. Long time ago, the three siblings came down from the south of China, the upper part of Mongolia to the plain where we live now. Among three siblings, Hkang was the eldest son and Jinghpaw was the second son. On the way, Hkang went down fast. When he passed by Nashi mountain where grew many banana trees, his brother, Jingphaw was left behind as he was hunting around. Even though Jinghpaw followed his brother, he couldn't reach to him anymore since the banana trees had already grown on his brother's tracks. So, he said, "I cannot follow him anymore. I just could see his tracks." Starting from that day, we, Jinghpaw have called them Hkang (it means track). Hkang people also say that, "We are the brother of Jinghpaw." And the ways they call their sibling families, wife-takers families, and wife-givers families which are called tripod families, are alike too. When I visited Hkang's places, they call barking deer, "Chyahkyi". In Jinghpaw we also call it "Chyahkyi". Moreover, they call the pheasant, "Uri" which is the same as ours. We still have many more similar things. It shows that Hkang and Jinghpaw are still closer than other ethinicities. Even though we are staying in different places, we are still close. The same as the stories about us which our ancestors had told, we have many similar things in common for real. By saying that, I want to conclude the history of Hkang and Jinghpaw here. We also have another story that we, Jinghpaw and Wa people are relatives. I am not so sure we, Jinghpaw were elder brother or younger brother of Wa. But according to the story, we are siblings. However, when the time each brother separated to different houses, they used sword as a sign of separation. Jinghpaw people wear it in a supine position. And Wa people wear it in a prone position. The reason for doing that is to become as one when the siblings meet again. It's the symbol of the brothers. That's why the cloth patterns of Wa and Jinghpaw are not so different. We have so many same patterns in common. Not only that, but also with Hkang ethinicity, our patterns are similar with theirs. If we consider these facts logically, these stories show that they were actually brothers from the same family. And we could guess that they were really close.
