Hkamti

Hkamti Long, the Great Place of Gold, was a remote Shan country on the Mali River, with its chief town at Putao. It began as an outlying territory of Möng Kawng, inhabited by the Tai-speaking Hkamti.

Hkamti Long was a loose cluster of seven small chiefdoms, including Lokhun and Mansi, under a saopha. In the 1700s Hkamti groups migrated to the upper Brahmaputra valley in Assam.
