500        |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.

520 3    |a These men are gathered in the Nyishi settlement of Talo to resolve a long-standing dispute between Nyishis and Apatanis. The man seated by himself to the right of centre and facing the long piece of wood in the centre is a Nyishi. In his right hand he holds small pieces of bamboo, with which he is enumerating his grievances against Apatanis by placing those small pieces on the long piece or inserting them vertically in the ground next to it. Christoph von Furer-Haimendorf, who came here from the Apatani valley to oversee the negotiations, was only able to witness long speeches: 'The Daflas [Nyishis] seem to love arguing, and with men of so many villages assembled, there are everywhere mel [negotiations] and councils, with larger and smaller groups gathered around a claimant placing stick after stick on the ground and explaining in an endless flow of words exactly how many mithan, maje [bell], cloths and dao [machete] his opponent owes him. Usually the defendant waits quietly and when the accuser has at last finished, takes up tally sticks himself and proves not less eloquently that all the claims put forward are more than outweighed by outstanding claims from his father's or grandfather's time against the family of the claimant.' These negotiations between Nyishis and Apatanis seemed close to resolution when the Apatanis reduced their demands by three quarters, asking for the return only of bells and brass plates recently paid as ransom, as well as 36 mithuns. The Nyishis agreed but offered only 17 mithuns, and the ten days of talk ended in stalemate.
