P R T Gurdon

P R T GurdonP. R. T. Gurdon was a British anthropologist and scholar of India, who is best known for his work on the Khasi tribe of northeast India. He was born in 1890 and educated at Cambridge University, where he studied Classics and Sanskrit. After completin his studies, Gurdon served as an administrative officer in India for several years before turning to anthropology. He conducted extensive fieldwork among the Khasis in the 1930s, living among them for extended periods and immersing himself in their way of life. This led to the publication of his seminal work, "The Khasis", which is considered one of the most detailed and comprehensive studies of the tribe. Gurdon's other works include "The Khasis and Their Customs" (1937), "A Handbook of the Khasi Language" (1948), and "The Khasi Highlands: With a Note on the Customs of the People" (1960). In addition to his scholarly pursuits, Gurdon was also a keen photographer and took many photographs of the Khasis and their way of life. Gurdon passed away in 1972, but his work on the Khasis continues to be an important resource for scholars and anyone interested in the anthropology and history of northeast India.
