Abstract

Description

Title imposed. Caption on the rear of the photograph: "Pygmies of Maiangum, on top of Schrader Range. Note how most of them are armed with bows and arrows. 5 Aug 1937 4.30 pm bright". Captions reflect the attitudes of the author at the time they were written, and do not reflect the values of the archives. Stinear occasionally notes weather conditions and brightness when taking photographs. These photographs were taken during Stinear's time in Papua New Guinea from 1936-1937, in the Sepik, Ramu, and Gulf regions.
