Previous PRM Number:
EP.A.462
Previous Other Number:
A.I [frame 8]
Accession Number:
1998.341.462.2
Description:
A portrait of a seated man (identified as a subject of Badinda, probably a local governor) playing a thumb-piano instrument known as a kundi.
Photographer:
Edward Evan Evans-Pritchard
Date of Photo:
1927
Region:
[Southern Sudan] Western Equatoria Yambio
Group:
Zande
Notes:
Since film numbers A.II & A.III have been attributed to E-P's first fieldwork expedition of 1927, due to the publication of associated material in an article in
Africa
(Vol.1, No.4, 1928), it seems likely that the A.I film precedes them both and is also from this trip.
Further (although only suggestive) evidence is the fact that the film contains portraits of some of E-P's first informants and servants in Zandeland.
