Abstract:
Two days after the rice seeds were left for germinating, all people of Barakot sowed their fields. Each sower filled a winnowing fan again and again with seed, taking it from large bags dumped on the bund. He sprinkled some of the seed on the ground next to him, and threw out a large handfull of seed into the centre of the seedbed. Only men sowed, but there were women present, who had helped to carry the seed which until that morning had been allowed to sprout in the houses. ( en )
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.
