| 500 | |a This photograph is part of album G. All the photographs in this album are of Lhotas and were taken in 1919, when Mills was based at Mokokchung, and engaged in writing The Lotha (Lhota) Nagas, published in 1922. Many of the images appear in that book. At this time the tribe numbered about 20,000, occupying the area of the Lower Doyang river, and bordered to the south by the Western Rengmas, to the north-east by the Aos, the south-east the Semas and the plains of Assam on the western side. | ||

Various plants are used, frequently used is the creeper locally called niro. Each man pounds a bundle of this on the bank to break down the plant cells. Then the creepers are further pounded on logs laid across the stream, the bundles being dipped into the water at intervals. When watchers downstream see the first fish come gasping to the surface, all fling their bundles into the water and rush to capture the fish. | |
