The Mu-Tze are a Jelbo-Tukaric group of peoples who live in the mountainous areas of Tukarali, Kalistan, and Aldegar. The Mu-Tze are actually formed of two closely related tribes, the Mu and Tze. The people most closely related to the Mu-Tze, from a linguistic and genetic point of view, is the Tukarese people. Due to long influence by the Gao-Showa people since antiquity, the Mu-Tze are counted as part of the Gao-Showa metaethnicity, in spite of their linguistic differences.
