Headman's daughter, Tseminyu, after being washed

B&W photographic print. 'Headman's daughter, Tseminyu, after being washed. Mills noted that the Rengmas very rarely washed, especially if they were busy in the fields, and were often black with soot after the jhuming season, when the jungle was burned to prepare it for the next crop (see R.8).'
