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 This Apatani ritual platform belongs to the Taliang clan in Hong village in the Apatani valley : Piled on top are spears and shields, marking the spot where a thief was recently executed : Having stolen five mithuns and valuables on numerous occasions, Chigi Duyu was condemned to death by a council of men : He was captured, brought to this platform and killed with a machete, after which his body was burned next to the other Apatani ritual structure, a small hut : as Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf explained, a ritual ropi, will now be performed to prevent the dead man's soul from taking revenge on the living : Men and boys will dance around the platform, a shaman will chant and a mithun will be sacrificed : the cost for the mithun was raised by public subscription, each family giving a little rice that was used to buy four cows, which in turn were bartered for one adult mithun. | |
