500        |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.

500        |a This raft was used to carry Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf and his party's luggage across the Kamla River at a point just below Dobom in the lower valley : He described the scene: 'High up on the bank, above flood level, was a derelict platform which used to be the starting point of a sole or rope-bridge : But there is at present no such cane-rope spanning the river, and the Dobom men had dragged two very long and stout canes all the way from the village down to the river, in case it should be necessary to improvise a sole rope bridge : : But the river was low and crossing by raft presented no difficulty : Several men of Rakhe arrived on the opposite bank of the river, and both they and our party set about splitting canes and tying them into long ropes : One thin rope was already fastened to trees on both banks, and with this as leader they hauled across a stouter rope and tied it to a bamboo raft : then some of our luggage was put on the raft and it was pulled across by the Rakhe men, while the men on our side were slowly feeding out their rope : By the reverse process, the raft was dragged back after unloading, and the next lot of luggage was taken across : this manner of crossing is very different from that employed by the Tapo men when we first crossed the Kamla : For then the ropes spanned the river close to the surface, and the crew of the raft hauled the raft across hand over hand; here there was no crew and the pulling was done by men ashore.'
500        |a The Kamla River is also known as the Sipi River.
500        |a Ethonlogue considers the Hill Miri to be part of the Mising (people) while other sources group the Hill Miri with the Nyishi. The Hill Miri are differentiated by their unique language, Sarak-miri or Hill-miri, from both Mising and Hill Miri.
