Notes
- Abstract:
- Metal bells, like this one, as well as brass plates, swords and some beads, were thought to be 'Tibetan.' Apatanis and other tribes in the Subansiri region, who obtained them indirectly through trade, invested these objects with great value : they used the bells without handle and clapper, to pay debts, purchase mithuns and contract marriages, among other things : Here we see Kago Bida an influential Apatani shaman, inspecting a bell given to him and his clan as part payment including several mithuns and brass plates, to effect the release of several Nyishis held prisoner by his clan : He wears the typical hair knot with metal skewer, string of metal beads on the hair line and small brass rings hanging from a cane ring in the ear lobe.

- General Note:
- 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.
