A gallery of photos taken on 13 October 2000 in Xian Ma village, Hou Chang township, Puding county, Guizhou province. The village has groups of Big Flower Miao (similar to the Big Flower Miao in Weining county in the north west of Guizhou - go to A-hmao page for discussion on migration and links of this group) and Side Comb Miao. The region around seemed to be inhabited predominately by Side Comb Miao. On arrival at the village we went to the school where the children, at least the girls - both Big Flower and Side Comb Miao - greeted us dressed in their festival costumes. We visited both Big Flower Miao and Side Comb Miao families. top
