| 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 After sprinkling some of its blood onto the main post, the pig is carried onto the other side of the house, placed on the ground and killed by piercing its heart : With a bamboo stripe, the distances between its two front and back legs are measured : the distances are added up, and if the result isn't more than the width of five fingers, it is seen as a good divination : Is it a finger more, all old men of the morung are going to die, is it five fingers more, the young men are in danger of death : In this case the omen was positive : the sacrificial animals will be eaten at a feast when the house is finished. | ||
