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 These Nyishi men are standing in a settlement, probably Jorum, not far from the Apatani valley : they wear the traditional hair style knot with skewers, and cane hat with hornbill beak and eagle hornbill or chicken, feather : they also wear jackets resembling those given by the government to 'village headmen,' which became ceremonial wear : the man in the centre, behind the other two, has a button and a few coins attached to his jacket : these jackets suggest that the men have come to take part in some event, perhaps the mithun bos frontalis, sacrifice that Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf photographed at Jorum.
