This is the same camp as seen in the PRM teaching lantern slide [Lienhardt 7] entitled - "Dinka wet season cattle camp". In particular compare the enclosed hut to the right of this image with that on the left of the slide image, suggesting that both were taken from the same position, with the camera turned several degrees.
