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. | ||

They carry hunting spears, with wooden shafts and iron blades. These are always thrown, and never used for thrusting. The range is not more than thirty yards. The dao, in its wooden holder, is carried in the small of the back. This is the indispensable all purpose tool, used for anything from slaying an enemy, cutting up food, cutting down a tree or cutting one's hair. The man seen on the left is also seen in photographs G.011 and G.012. | |
