|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 man is probably Tana Sera, the headman of Posa, a Nyishi settlement in the Potin area : On his trip from Assam to the Apatani valley in autumn 1944, Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf camped at Potin for several days, during which he met this formidable figure : His exaggerated hair knot, higher and thicker than was common, seems to display his self-regard : Otherwise, he wears a typical coarse cotton shawl and tunic, wooden discs in the ear lobes, cane belt, cane bands below the knee and set of necklaces, including a valued metal chain : He carries both a machete and a shorter knife, tucked into the cane belt : During his meeting with the foreigner, Tana Sera complained that the government demanded too many porters from his clan : On one occasion, Fürer-Haimendorf issued him with a written order to bring fifteen men to Potin, adding that since a previous official had given him the headman's red coat he was obligated to cooperate : tana Sera, however, did not concur and refused to bring any porters : as a result, Fürer-Haimendorf arrested and fined him one mithun a large, ox-like animal, : as security, Tana Sera gave him two expensive necklaces and promised to deliver the mithun. |
