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. 
500 |a This land was recently cleared for shifting cultivation near a Hill Miri settlement in the Kamla River valley : Passing this scene, Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf' described it: 'I passed through a jhum shifting cultivation :-field on a very steep and stony slope : Nearly all the bigger trees were still standing, but the branches had been largely lopped off, and the burning of the undergrowth had singed the remaining leaves : Part of the field was already planted with maize, and a boy and a girl in a little palm-thatched shelter visible in the centre : were guarding the tender, sprouting shoots : Moreover, there were small gratings of bamboo dangling above the young crop, suspended from ropes that were stretched between the trees.' 
500 |a The Kamla River is also known as the Sipi River. 
500 |a Ethonlogue considers the Hill Miri to be part of the Mising (people) while other sources group the Hill Miri with the Nyishi. The Hill Miri are differentiated by their unique language, Sarak-miri or Hill-miri, from both Mising and Hill Miri.
