Âu Việt

They were believed to have belonged to the Tai-Kadai language group.

In eastern China, the Ouyue established the Dong'ou or Eastern Ou kingdom. The Western Ou ( 西 甌; ; ''Tây'' meaning "western") were other Baiyue tribes, with short hair and tattoos, who blackened their teeth and are the ancestors of the upland Tai-speaking minority groups in Vietnam such as the Nùng and Tay, as well as the closely related Zhuang people of Guangxi.

The Baiyue (, ), Hundred Yue, or simply Yue (; ), were various ethnic groups who inhabited the regions of East China, South China and Northern Vietnam during the 1st millennium BC and 1st millennium AD. They were known for their short hair, body tattoos, fine swords, and naval prowess. During the Warring States period, the word "Yue" referred to the State of Yue in Zhejiang.
