These people are my relative ! As a Thai person I deeply feel a strong connection both in our cultures and lineages. The words "Thai" and "Dai" have the same origin. Dai people and northern Thai people look almost the same.
During the Tang Dynasty period ( 600-900 AD), Nanchao was a powerful kingdom. It consisted of several Dai or Tai ethnic groups. Nanchao Empire extended to the Northern part of SE Asia. Nanchao fought many wars against the Khmer, who dominated mainland SE Asia at the the time. Dai adopted their languages, religions and cultures from India. They are different from Han Chineses. In the 13th century, the Mongols under Kubla Khan subjugated the Dai people. Many fled southward and settled in what is now Burma, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam. Their languages, traditions and religion are similar to those practice in Burma, Laos and Thailand. In Northern Laos and Thailand today, especially in Chiangmai Mai and Chiangmai Rai, the similarity is quite profound. The mannerism and religious chants by the Buddhist monks is the same. I am Khon Lao living in the USA.
I am Chinese American...born & raised in NY. But my Mom & Dad is from Southern China (Canton area). I moved to Thailand 8-yrs ago as an expat, eventually settling into Chiang Mai. My brother did a DNA test last year and found out we also have Dai & Vietnamese in us which we never knew. I've now relocated to Vietnam. Strange, my soul feels at home in these 2 countries and consider them home.
With all due respect. Chinese is the Han. Dai and Han lived in the land of ancient China in millennia. The Hans were stronger and they chased away the Dais they saw as barbarians down to the south.
Dai are Chinese. They are a minority group of China. Only an ignorant nationalist would deny the other ethnic groups that have lived there for thousands of years.@@619elephant9
Han are not the only Chinese. There was a time the Han didn't exist. China has many ethnic minorities and there have been found White European mummies in Western China from 2,000 years ago! @@mytube9182
I just knew about Dai people in a few years back like most of my compatriots. But I'm 100% sure I am more than 30% Dai. Our latest DNA observation found out that we Thais have great portion of Dai DNA.

@@mrblack7218 No our king was Dai/Chinese Shan and all the Tai peoples are known as Dai/Tai.Even Shan people are Dai/Tai but we all just got admix with other ethnicities so it created many ethnicities like - Tai Ahom,Tai Lue,Thai/Tai Siam etc so we are all Dai/Tai.
@@mrblack7218 The Shan peoples were also Dai but now they're different because they also got mix with other ethnicities like other Tai families.Shans got mix with Burmese.Tai Ahoms mainly got mix with Borahi and Moran peoples.So like that we all had different ethnicities
such a fun video, Thanks so much. The ceremony or habit of the water at the end of the video , for luck , reminds me of anothe habit in new year in Birmania throwing water. Love this places
SV Lloyd's Nostalgic Baseball Cards Revived me too . i was so suprised too . i was wondering why some of my sibling and nephew has a small eyes . 😂 now i knew why we do have dai thai genes . when i was thailand , thai people thought i was one of them .
Many Tai Ahoms are like wow we're similar like don't they know that Tai Ahoms are also Dai.Thais,Tai Lues etc are also Dai people that's why we're are known as Tai peoples.They created their new ethnicities so that's how we kinda got separated
Got a 99.0% Dai n 1 vet from 23n me. I'm a Tai knw my current culture n all tat but it seems I can't find the ancestorial roots of the Dai people. Where we come from? Mongol? China? I knew we were migrants but I can't find where we frm or what we did. How far did my bloodline go n shitt.

The original Thai people still living in China I guess. How nice. Wonder what will show up when they take a DNA-test 100% Chinese Dai? Some of the children look Khmer. I saw Thai peoples DNA-results from 23 and me saying that they were Lao/Cambodian/Chinese/Chinese-Dai but not a single one 100% just Thai or close to 100%. In fact more like 5% Thai. Very interesting..
@Lao Lao My mother is from Lanna, Northern Thailand. I'm half Thai. 23 and me is actually very accurate, I think. It sais I'm 25% Chinese Dai. That would make my mother 50% Chinese Dai, and according to Thailand's history of mixing ethnicities very fitting.
I am dai, I got it from my moms side and bruh I thought I’d be Thai or somewhere in Beijing china. I looked at my DNA and damn I did t know dai was a place in Asia, I got not much but a lot of some dai in me; but I didn’t know I would have so old Chinese culture in me.
Can the DNA test company change the word from Chinese Dai to be only Tai? Chinese is Chinese ethnicity and Dai is Tai ethnicity but China spelling it’s Dai. Btw, Tai people are not Lao as many comments tried to convince. Tai people are the same with Thai.
You have to be trolling, lol! The Lao-tai are Tai/Dai, just look at the Xishuangbanna census. The Tai aren't Thai; the Thai people are a nationality with a group of a dozen ethnicities. There's Tai-Siam, Tai-Yuan, Tai-Lao, etc. There are Thai people who are not even Tai-kadai. Plus, northeastern Thai are majority Lao.

@@Kwthardevyth Yes, in another video about Tai Ahom history I said I'm very proud of them as one of their relates.

Same here. Bigger percentage but still.

Also to the Tai communities of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, northeast india

I am from limbu ethnicity from Nepal. I found so many things similar to Dai people. Thanks for the info anyway.
Dai people seem to abit like a mixture between Chinese and Thai. Somewhere in between. But we do know Thais originally came from Southern China.
You spelled the names of northern Thai provinces wrong. It's Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai.
*Wrote, not spelled

I'm mostly all European but on my mother's maternal side, it was found she has an ancestor from 700 AD that was Chinese Dai.

@@allandevera8765 The Dai people are also known as "Tai Lue". They are more closely related to the Laotian people.
