Notes
- Abstract:
- This is Padi Lalyang (right) and his son Padi Yubbe during the celebration of the younger man's famous election victory. In February 1978, MLAs were elected as Members of the Legislative Assembly in Itanagar, the capital of the (then) Union Territory of Arunachal Pradesh. Padi Yubbe, from the Padi clan, one of the richest and most influential in local society, was elected not only as an MLA but also as Speaker of the Legislative Assembly. The invited guests, who Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf estimated to number 500, included Nyishis and Hill Miris from villages within the speaker's constituency. The father wears a traditional hair style, although without a skewer (as seen on the men in the background), and carries a small machete, while the son has adopted modern dress. The celebration was held at Padi Yubbe's house in Old Ziro, the small town-cum-village at the northern end of the valley. ( 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.
