Tam Duong is a mountainous district in the northeast of Lai Chau province, where many Dao ethnic groups live such as the Khau Dao, Red Dao, and Bang-headed Dao groups. The Dao people are also an ethnic group with many unique rituals that are still maintained and performed in modern life. Among them, we must mention the Tu Cai ceremony of the Bang-headed Dao people (also known as the Cap Sac ceremony) in Ho Thau commune. According to the meaning of Nom Dao script, "Tu" means to report, "Cai" means to name. Tu Cai is understood as a ceremony to report to the gods and ancestors about giving a son a name in the family line.
