To the west the Konyaks bordered the Assam plains and the Ao Nagas; on the south-east were the Phoms, and on the east the Singphos of Burma. At the time of these photographs much of their country was unadministered and little known and some of the villages visited during this expedition had never before been seen by Europeans. | ||

| 500 | |a The album in which this image was originally collected mainly contains photographs taken during a punitive expedition in April 1923 to the Konyak village of Yungya, certain inhabitants of which had carried out a head-hunting raid on Kamahu. J.P. Mills was Assistant Commissioner, Mokokchung at this time. He accompanied J.H. Hutton, Deputy Commissioner, Kohima, who was his superior and therefore wrote the official Tour Diary for the expedition. The military escort of Gurkhas was commanded by Captain W.B.S. Shakespear. | ||

| 520 | 3 | |a A long line of porters approaches, guarded by Gurkha soldiers, seen on the right (see also B.7). Two Europeans, probably Hutton and Shakespear, are in front. "Here elaborate preparations had been made for us, a camp being cleared and water and wood stacked ready. This we ungraciously acknowledged by arresting three of the leading villagers who had been concerned in the Yungya raid on Kamahu. However the village in general seemed pleased, as the gentlemen seemed far from popular." | |
