| Summary: |
This woman is carrying firewood near Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf's campsite tents are visible in the background, on one of his trips beyond the Apatani valley : the large, V-shaped basket, used to carry other items, is here reinforced with another, mesh-basket used specifically for large objects, such as firewood : the man in front wears the typical cane belt and wooden penis cover : although the photograph was taken in February, probably at an elevation between 1,000 to 1,500 metres, the weather appears to have been warm : these people appear to be Hill Miris but may be Nyishis. |
