Burma / Myanmar: Local Shan (Tai Yai) style Buddha figure with smaller simple Buddha figure from one of the local hill peoples, Wat Jong Kham (Zom Kham) Pagoda, Kyaing Tong (Kengtung), Shan State (2015)

Located in the northeast of the country, Shan State covers one-quarter of Burmas land mass. It was traditionally separated into principalities and is mostly comprised of ethnic Shan, Burman Pa-O, Intha, Taungyo, Danu, Palaung and Kachin peoples.<br/><br/>. The ethnic Tai-Shan people are believed to have migrated from Yunnan in China. The Shan are descendants of the oldest branch of the Tai-Shan, known as Tai Long (Great Tai) or Thai Yai (Big Thai). The Tai-Shan who migrated to the south and now inhabit modern-day Laos and Thailand are known as Tai Noi (Little Tai) or Tai Nyai.<br/><br/>. The Shan have inhabited the Shan Plateau and other parts of modern-day Myanmar as far back as the 10th century CE. The Shan kingdom of Mong Mao (Muang Mao) existed as early as the 10th century CE, but became a Burmese vassal state during the reign of King Anawrahta of Pagan (1044-1077).
