| 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 Man crouching down is an Apatani blacksmith, while the standing man is his assistant : When Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf expressed an interest to see a blacksmith, he was ‘taken into a side valley and then up a pine-covered slope to a small hut, standing in an isolated position amidst pasture land : the blacksmith’s forge, I was told, must stand at some distance from the village, for his art is fraught with magical danger…’ blacksmith was named Nenkre Kenchi, who said that he made all his own tools : He had been taught by his father, although the craft is not hereditary : the bellows consisted ‘of two wooden bowls covered with banana leaf cones; they were let into the floor and were worked by a man pulling alternate cones up and down, thus pressing the air into the bamboo tubes that lead to the forge… Most of the iron he worked came from Assam, largely in the shape of old or broken tea-estate hoes, which plains-going men obtained cheaply : If a man brought one tea-estate hoe, he : would turn it into two swords machetes : and would receive one side of bacon and one basket of unhusked rice for his labour.’ | |
