| 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 Gaonbura is the only remaining non-christian of the village : He wears traditional dress with a cowrie-shell decorated 'apron', standing outside a morung decorated with a life-sized wooden figure and carved human heads : He came to greet Fürer-Haimendorf together with the pastor of the village : another man stands next to him, a young sits on bamboo poles in front : the gaonbura holds a decorated spear in his right hand : the village of Yaongyimsen Yongyimsen, is built on the rocky ridge of a hill : therefore the houses stand close together along a village street : Remarkable are the projecting roofs of the houses : the architecture is still quite traditional even though the larger lot of inhabitants had already converted to Christianity when Fürer-Haimendorf visited. | ||
