Album B. also contains some photographs taken on this tour. At the time Mills was Assistant Commissioner, based at Mokokchung, and Hutton was Deputy Commissioner at Kohima.

When a head is taken, it is first placed at the foot of this erect stone, then put into a basket and left to rot in the jungle. When more or less clean, it is hoisted up on this pole and left there until the next annual ceremony which is celebrated when the young crops have grown high and are due for their first weeding. After this, the head is taken down and transferred to the Ang's collection, or placed in the Morung, when its fertility or "soul- force" will be transferred to the village.
