Abstract

The Xinh Mun and the Phoong are two of 53 indigenous groups who speak ​​Mon - Khmer language and reside in Vietnam and Laos. They mainly reside in the northern border of Vietnam and Laos. The researchers assume that they are the oldest residents in northern Indochina. Recently, a lot of data shown that the Xinh Mun (Puoc) originated from Laos, and in the  later on migrated to the Northwestern border communes.

The data on Xana in the campus of Hoa Binh Pagoda (Vat San Ti Phap) in Phonxavan; Xana Pu Khun crossroad (Muong Ka Si, Xieng Khoang); Xana in the drum festival of the Poong (Phoong) in Muong Kham; Xana in the Xinh Mun's funerals in Yen Chau (Son La), etc. allow to initially affirm that, Xing Mun culture, particularly Puoc Nghet groups possess many cultural elements in northern Laos, especially Buddhist culture ...
