Description
English:
Indigenous man with disease, India, ca. 1920
Tinted lantern slide showing an indigenous man in his village. He is suffering from a disease, and his legs and feet have swelled up. His feet have also become disfigured, and he has a large swelling on one ankle. The man may be suffering from yaws, a bacterial infection affecting people in tropical areas. He wears a loin cloth. The houses of his village can be seen in the background, which are wooden and raised from the ground, supported by wooden poles. The man may be a member of the Naga group of tribes, living in north east India and north west Burma. This slide comes from a collection created by missionaries from Regions Beyond Missionary Union, an interdenominational Protestant evangelical mission working in northeast India (Bihar and Orissa) and Nepal.
