Rục people

The Rục people are a sub-ethnic group within the Chut people. When first encountered by North Vietnamese soldiers during the Vietnam War, the Ruc were hunter-gatherer tribes, living in caves in eastern Quảng Bình province. Since then, as of 2006, the government has made many attempts to relocate them (at least 93 households, 414 people).^[1]

They conduct shamanistic rituals that are said to allow them to control animals and to have caused harm to a person at one point.^[2]
