Ethnic CultureModule 5 喜馬拉雅山腳下長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)生活著一個(gè)神秘的少數(shù)民族珞巴族。盡管它是生活在我國(guó)境內(nèi)人口最少的民族，但是它卻有著豐富的文化和獨(dú)特的習(xí)俗。 Primarily found throughout the Luoyu Region of southeast Tibet，the Luoba，with a population of 2,965，is the smallest of Chinas 56 ethnic groups.Their name comes from the Tibetan word for southerners. Living at the foot of Himalayas，the Luoba is almost completely separated from the outside world.Blessed with a wide variety of resources，ranging from animals and plants to minerals，the Luobas economy is based on agriculture and hunting.The Luoba language has no writing system，so most Luoba speakers use Tibetan characters.The legends of the Luoba have been passed on orally. The Luoba people believe that the world is filled with spirits which dominate their lives，control nature，cause disasters and give happiness.They pray to the spirits，seeking blessings and believe that shamans (薩滿教巫醫(yī)) have the power to control them.Because the Luoba ethnic minority is close to the Tibetan people，the food，culture and customs resemble those of the Tibetans.The staple foods are rice，corn and a kind of local grain called “Jizhuagu” with which they make a popular yellow wine. The Luoba ethnic minority is very hospitable and places high value on etiquette.When therere guests，they must be given the most important seats and offered the most prized parts of each dish.The Luoba hunt with poisoned arrows，so meat must be treated after the animal is cut up.Before dinner，the host will drink and eat a little to show that the food is safe.Guests should eat all the food put before them on the table，or the host will be offended. Some of the Luoba people observe festivals according to the Tibetan calendar，while others live according to their own calendar，so the Luoba ethnic minority has no unified (統(tǒng)一的) dates to celebrate together.Most，however，celebrate the arrival of the New Year by killing pigs，oxen or sheep and sharing the meat with others.Drinking，singing and dancing are other popular New Years celebrations.
