Description:
Hut roofs of the village of Ugak seen from a distance across a open area of fields.
Predominantly agriculturalists, the Anuak clear the fields (often in forest soil) sometime around March and April and sow in May as the rains come on.
Since Evans-Pritchard was in Anuakland during this part of the year only it is likely that this field has just been cleared of vegetation ready for sowing.
