rtamu (རྟམུ) or Gurung are a Tibetan ethnic group living in the hills and mountains of Gandaki Province of Nepal. Gurungs speak Tamu kyi which is a Sino-Tibetan language derived from the Tibeto-Burman language family. The written form of Gurung is heavily dependent on the Tibetan script and history and details related to their culture and tradition is passed on from one generation to the other usually by word-of-mouth. The term Tamu (རྟམུ) is used by the Gurungs to refer to themselves. According to oral traditions, the name Gurung is derived from the Tibetan word "Gru-gu", meaning "to bring down," reflecting their migration from the Tibetan plateau to the southern slopes of the Himalayas.
