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 Sherdukpen men are two of the Sat Rajas ('Seven Kings'), or representatives of a few Sherdukpen villages who came to the plains to transact business with the government. The man wearing the flat brim hat is their leader. Both men wear ceremonial clothes and hats influenced by eastern Bhutanese and Tibetan traditions. The Sat Rajas came on this occasion to meet J. P. Mills, Adviser to the Governor of Assam for Tribal Areas, who stands on the right. The young girl is his daughter Philippa, who was 12 at the time. She caught malaria fever, while on tour with her father, and died a few years later. This meeting took place at the Sherdukpen winter camp on the Belsiri River, east of Charduar, where they presented Mills with an honorary scarf, which he wears. Each year Sherdukpens (and other Arunachal tribes) came to Charduar, in Assam, to receive annual payments from the government. Charduar was the headquarters of the Balipara Frontier Tract, which included most of the eastern districts of present-day Arunachal Pradesh, where Sherdukpens (Akas, Mijis, Monpas and Buguns) live. Charduar ('Four-Door/Gate') was one of several duars along the base of the eastern Himalayas where hill tribes came to transact business with the rulers of the plains. Many tribes received an annual payment (posa) in goods and/or cash in return for not raiding villages in the plains. For some tribes, these payments continued for several years even after 1947. The Sat Rajas wear ceremonial clothes and hats influenced by eastern Bhutanese and Tibetan traditions.
