Description:
A number of oxen (ma gut ox to right) with a hut and group sitting outside talking, taken with the camera resting on the ground.
This was possible since the camera was a twin lens reflex camera with top viewer.
The location is described as western Nuerland, probably either Nyueny village among the Karlual section of the Leek tribe or Jikul.
Jikul is a lineage or clan name not associated with one tribal territory, but which was a significant lineage around Nyueny and surrounding villages in Leek country, but also elsewhere such as Western Jikany.
