|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. |

|a This photograph of a mithun in an Apatani landscape was taken near Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf's camp site in the Apatani valley : a mithun bos frontalis, for Apatanis, as for many tribes in central Arunachal Pradesh, was a form of currency and ceremonial gift, to humans and the spirits, as well as a source of meat : today, although cash is used for currency and increasingly also for ceremonial gifts, mithuns are still sacrificed at large festivals : However, Apatanis own far fewer mithuns than in the past : Fürer-Haimendorf reported that before 1970, when an epidemic of foot and mouth disease killed nearly all these animals in the Apatani valley, wealthy men owned as many as 100 or 200 mithuns, and that ten years later, those same men had only thirty or forty : today, wealthy men own about ten mithuns, and many people have only two or three : In 1980, Fürer-Haimendorf also observed that ‘i : :f an Apatani is faced with a decision of sacrificing five mithan…or buying a second-hand jeep, he may well decide on the purchase of such a vehicle.’ As he predicted, Apatanis are now less likely to spend cash on mithuns than on other status symbols such as cars and modern houses. |
