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 group of Nyishi men were photographed by Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf during a campaign against Nyishi clans in the Kiyi River valley, to the west of the Apatani valley, in December 1944 : the armed campaign targeted only a few Nyishi clans or families, and these men were probably not among them : they may be taking part in the lengthy negotiations intended to prevent conflict, but which ultimately failed : the old man in front wears the typical coarse cotton tunic and shawl, cane hat with hornbill beak and feather, hair knot with skewer, and string of metal beads on the hair line : the man behind him wears the typical cane belt.
