Long time ago, there was a story told about a lost army.
During the Three Kingdom period(A.D. 222¨D280), the famous military counselor-Kongming,
led his army to fight; one branch of the army enthralled in sleeping on
the way, and was left behind. Though the branch caught up at last, it
would not be accepted. In order to keep them living, Kongming donated
seeds of tea towards them and urged them to plant, he also taught them
to build houses according to the shape of his cap. Although, the story
could not tell the history, it surely told the ancient Jino was closely
to the Hanzu nationality. Jino, a particular minority nationality, lives
at Jino Village, Xishuangbanna Area, in Yunnan Province. They are gentle people. A person learns to work when he is a child. He is polite on his behalf. The aged people are respected by the youth. Steal doesn't exist inner the nationality. They are kind and friendly, but they have taboos, especially on bearing a baby. |
