The houses arc built on the ground like those of the meo, and have thatch grass roofs, with bamboo slat nr split wood walls. They are Large and roomy dwellings with two or more partitioned sections. The front sections of the houses are used for working and quartering guests, with a fire hearth in the middle of each section
The Yao like to be near a source of water which can be brought into their houses by bamboo troughs and spilled into large wooden troughs at one end of the house. They will hook up rice pounders on fast-flowing streams, and use it to irrigate small gardens by. each home. Generally, their villages are kept cleaner than those of most other hill tribes.
Physical Description : The Yao are one of the "Yellow" race, quite "Chinese " in appearance, or showing strong mongoloid features. They are as fair-complexion as the Meo, and nearly as light skinned as the Chinese. They enjoy comparatively good health and sanitary conditions, bathing daily and keeping neat, clean clothes on most of the time. Since they, like the Mm, associate more with the people of the valleys, venereal and other diseases are not unheard of and malaria is common. Some 5-8% of the total population
are opium addicts, a much lower proportion than the Meo.
