500 |a On 16 April, J.P. Mills and company travelled to the next camp, at Okha, the villagers enquiring whether they should "clear the same site the sahib had used last time." This was Colonel Woodthorpe, 48 years previously. The eggs presented as a gift were "for a change, neither addled nor bad - they hatched that evening in the kitchen."

500 |a The Konyak tribe lived in the northern part of the Naga Hills. 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.

Up to now the weather had been exceptionally wet; everyone was continually soaked, and as a result there were several cases of illness. While at this camp, sepoys and Nagas fished, while Hutton caught up with official correspondence which had been brought in by runner. There was no respite from office work even while on tour.
