Möng Ting

Möng Ting, called Mengding in Chinese records, was a Tai chiefdom on the Nam Ting River in southwestern Yunnan. The Yuan raised Mengding to a military-civilian administration in 1294.

Möng Mao absorbed Mengding in 1348, and Si Lunfa appointed a governor. In 1382 the Ming made it a native prefecture under hereditary Dao chiefs. During the Luchuan campaigns in the fifteenth century, the chief fled and the Ming commander Wang Ji enfeoffed Han Ge of Hsenwi; his Han family retained hereditary authority under the Qing.
