- 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.

- These people are Buguns (formerly known as Khovas or Khowa), a small population of approximately 800 in the West Kameng District. The women's clothing and jewellery, which show Tibetan influences, are common to other tribal populations in the region. The textiles, for instance, are similar to those worn by Monpas and Sherdukpens. The man's bamboo hat, however, is unique to Buguns.
