- 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.
- General Note:
- This fenced-in field and these structures are in a Hill Miri settlement somewhere in the lower Kamla River valley, possibly near Raga village : the longhouse on the right, like most in the region, is built primarily with bamboo, hardwood poles and thatch on the roof : It also has several hearths, one for each wife in a polygynous family : the smaller structure attached to it may be a storeroom, while the free-standing structure near the fenced-in field is probably a granary : the fenced-in field contains large tree trunks, banana trees and some kind of crop possibly maize or millet.
- General Note:
- The Kamla River is also known as the Sipi River.
- General Note:
- 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.
