| 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 As this photograph shows, Apatanis live in compact villages and in narrow houses approx : 12 x 4 metres and owned by nuclear families, in order to use every square metre of land for wet-rice agriculture : In the open space between the two neat rows of houses, here in Hari village, are three ritual platforms, each owned by a different clan or set of clans, : On or near each platform stands a tall pole 15-20 metres high, which is erected during the Myoko festival : On the porches of the houses on the left are a few smaller poles, which are put up to indicate a boy born in the three years since this village last hosted the annual festival : During the festival, celebrated in March, heavy cane ropes tied between these poles are used for acrobatic displays : On the left, a man is beginning his performance, perhaps for the benefit of the camera. | |
