Abstract: (Show)

A pilot project to develop digital collection, storage, and distribution strategies for multimedia anthropological information from the Himalayan region. At present this website contains samples of films and photographs from the five major collections of ethnographic information from the Himalayan region in their possession. In time, larger selections will be accessible in searchable databases that include still photographs, film clips, sound recordings, and textual materials. Other great archival resources on this site are digital copies of selcted issues of the journals "Kailash - Journal of Himalayan Studies" and "Revue d'Etudes Tibétaines." (David Germano 2003-08-15)
