云南境外的傣泐人

傣泐人又叫泐人（Lue），是傣族中的一支。在我国，傣泐人主要居住在云南的西双版纳．此外，思茅和红河地区也有少量分布。除了云南以外，境外的几个国家也居住有一些傣泐人。居住在境外各国的傣泐人，由于环境的改变，他们在文化、习俗等方面与云南的傣泐人已有了一些不同，在政治上也分别认同他们居住的国家。但是，另一方面，他们又仍然保持着对他们的故土西双版纳和他们傣泐人身份的认同。由于保持着这种认同，这个群体也就成为联系云南乃至中国与东南亚国家的一条天然纽带。

Lue is one of the branches of Dai. In China, the main region the Lue populate is Xishuangbanna There are also Lue people living in the neighboring countries such as Laos, Thailand, Myanmar and Vietnam. According to their own oral tradition and the investigation conducted by many scholars, all the Lue people living in these countries are the immigrants from Xishuangbanna, their homeland. Owing to the change of environment, their culture and customs are a little bit different from their compatriots in Xishuangbanna, however, they have still been keeping their Lue ethnicity and the relationship with those in Xishuangbanna.
