- 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.

- House with stylised mithun horns at the gable, declaring a successful cycle of feasts of merit, conducted by the house owner or his forefathers : the entire front of the house is covered with woodcarvings : in a horizontal row, hunting trophies skulls with antlers, are hanged across the front : Underneath the porch three cows are tied to the min posts of the house : a woman with a large earring walks towards the front door : In the background the village street shows the thatched-roof houses of people, all of them less decorated and thus pointing at the lower social status of the inhabitants.
