| 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 On their way to Chezwezumi Fürer-Haimendorf and J.P. Mills cross irrigated rice fields before crossing the Sidzü Yeti, River between Chakhabama and Chezwezumi : at the fields, J.P. Mills is approached by the landowner who seeks help from the British to save his fields from a impending landslide : Such rice-fields are typical for the Angami as the tribes further north only practice jhum-cultivation slash and burn, : the steeper the terrain, the less terrace fields can be found : to built a terrace, the stones are taken out of the soil and are used to build the supporting outer wall of the structure : Irrigation is done by a system of channels which carry water distant sources, sometimes miles away : the water flows from one field into the other, the terraces being so carefully graduated that one source can be used to irrigate a large number of fields : as water is a valuable good, the right to use a source for irrigation is attributed to the person that first dug a channel from it : the ownership of wet terrace-fields is not communal but strictly private. | ||
