They are a Mon-Khmer subgroup of the officially recognized Gie Trieng people around the Ngoc Linh mountains in Vietnam's Kon Tum province, tracing oral origin to Laos and traditionally living in circular stilt-longhouse villages around a communal rong house. They mostly adhere to Animism and Trieng is their primary language.
