|a 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. |

|a On the 25th of July, a man of the Ang-Bang morung dies in the evening : the log drum is played immediately to inform the villagers : the morning after the death, the clansmen of the deceased bring a large log from the jungle and cut it into shape using their dao-axes : One of the men working on the coffin is entirely naked, others wear a dark loincloth fixed around their waists with a cane ring : Using a chisel, the ends of the coffin are formed into several heads of a hornbill bird : after the woodcarving is finished, an old man comes to colour the hornbill heads bright red : at last a whole is cut into the coffin to allow the fluids of the rotting body to drain off : Into the finished coffin, a braided bamboo mat is placed into which the body will be partly wrapped before the open coffin is placed upon a platform in the forest : after the body is disintegrated enough, its head will be taken off to be kept separately inside a hollowed stone. |
