500 |a Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf (1909-1995) was born and educated in Vienna, gaining a PhD in anthropology from the University of Vienna in 1931. A grant from the Rockefeller Foundation enabled him to study at the London School of Economics, under the anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski. In 1936, he went to the Naga Hills in northeast India for his first fieldwork; over the next four decades, he worked extensively in south & central India, northeast India and Nepal. In 1950 he was appointed Professor of Anthropology at SOAS, where he established the Department of Anthropology. During his career, he published seventeen books, most of them ethnographies of tribal cultures. He was President of the Royal Anthropological Institute (1975-77) and a pioneer in the field of visual anthropology.

520 3 |a As Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf discovered, Apatanis live in nuclear families, narrow houses approx : 12 x 4 metres, and compact villages in order to use every square metre of land for wet-rice agriculture : Porches, front and back, extend the living and working area, and provide a public viewing gallery, as well : the thatched roof seen here sometimes was laid on top of split and flattened bamboo more fire-resistant and water-tight, : thatch was abandoned in the 1970s, and since the 1990s corrugated iron sheeting has been preferred : another change is that houses are now only about 1 metre above ground, while in the 1940s they were higher : Wooden or concrete steps have been substituted for the notched wooden board leading to the front porch : In other essentials, however, Apatani houses today look like those seen in this photograph : the tall pole in the background is a babo pole about 15-20 metres high, erected during the Myoko festival.
