Khumi people

Chittagong,
Bangladesh


There are 11 ethnic groups living in the CHT, I have already showed you a Mru women, here you see a Khumi women with her beautiful and distinct heavy silver earrings. Very much the same people we saw in the Chin villages in Rakhine state in Burma. Rene, (Neretslok) will also notice this. If you open the map you will see how close the two areas are so this is really not surprising.
The Khumis are Buddhists and came from the Arakan hills (Burma) in the 17th century.
