| 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 pieces of bamboo hidden in the undergrowth are a means of defence, known as panji : they were widely used by Nyishis and others in the eastern Himalayas to slow the progress of an enemy : a series of usually, fire-hardened, sharp and often poison-, tipped bamboo pieces are set up in the jungle, where the advancing enemy may not see them and injure themselves : Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf saw this panji while he and Capt : Davy led an expedition of Apatanis and Assam Rifles against a group of Nyishi settlements in the Kiyi River valley, to the west of the Apatani valley, in December 1944. | |
