| 500 | |a This photograph is part of album K. Many of the images of this album are published in "The Ao Nagas" 1926. Mongsen andChongli are two groups of the Ao, speaking their own dialect and following their own customs. At the time these photographs were taken some villages could contain khels of these separate groups, each khel knowing the other's language but speaking its own. This was often very inconvenient, so a village might decide to speak the same dialect, even though Mongsen or Chongli customs continued to be differentiated among the inhabitants. There were also, of course, villages which were purely Mongsen or Chongli. | ||

| 520 | 3 | |a This shows an offering as part of the ceremony to drive out the evil spirit which has "captured a man's soul" and caused his illness. A wild boar has been sacrificed and it (or an imitation) has been hung on the post together with a pot and a carrying basket. In cases of more serious illness, the sacrifice, as here, is performed at the actual spot where the "medicine man" thinks the sick man's soul was captured. (Chungtia is a Mongsen village) | |
