The Cham captives settled in Nghệ An, lived in Cham-style villages and either became personal servants to the royal elite or laboured for religious establishments. They also contributed to the construction of religious buildings, indicated by thousands of bricks from Ba Đình which bear Cham script.
The Cham prisoners who were relocated to Nghệ An established villages that reflected their own cultural heritage and either served as personal attendants to the royal family or worked for institutions related to religion. This is evident in the construction of religious buildings, which can be seen in the thousands of bricks from Ba Đình bearing Cham inscriptions.
