Anthropology / ethnic group in Vietnam
Japanese term or phrase: サティン族
What is the Romanized spelling of サティン族? It is supposedly an ethnic group in the central highlands of Vietnam, such as Kontum-Pleiku Province. I found English translations of all the other ethnic groups mentioned in the document I’m translating, including ジャライ族 (Gia Rai), エデ族 (Ê Đê), チャム族 (Chăm ) and the フレ族 (H’re), but I
can’t find the サティン族.

Explanation:
Perhaps a typo for スティエン族 (Xtiêng)?
I'll do some more research.

Or maybe even Se Dang? They're also partly from that province.
