The origin of Samui people:
Long ago, there was a brave Samui warrior, King Samui. If his head is cut off in battle, it will grow back under the starry night sky. However, his wife revealed the secret of his immortality, and he was finally killed in a battle. Samai people lit torches everywhere to find his soul, and even followed a tradition, that is, the Torch Festival was celebrated on June 24 of the lunar calendar every year.
The second Sumei is a descendant of Meng Huo of the Three Kingdoms. Later, Zhuge Liang of Shu Han entered Yunnan, and the Sumei people were dispersed. King Samei, the leader, evacuated his people to find water and lived and worked in Longquan. So it was also called "parting people", and later it gradually changed its voice to "sister-in-law".
The cockscomb hat is a symbol of good luck and happiness for Sami girls. Therefore, every year when celebrating the "Nizhashi" Festival, Sami girls have to embroider one or two cockscomb hats. The cockscomb hat is worn on the head, indicating that the rooster will always accompany the girl. Before their engagement, young Sami women in Xishan District of Kunming wore a backward "cockscomb hat", indicating that they were unmarried. At the engagement ceremony of "drinking big wine", the "head of a chicken" must be turned from the back to the front.
Nowadays, the customs of all ethnic groups are changing, but every festival day, Samei aunts still like to wear their colorful national costumes and their beloved cockscomb hats to participate in various festive activities. The cock of Samui folk can ward off evil spirits. As a mascot, it can bring happiness to mankind. The concept of peace is well reflected in the treasure of this comb hat.
