Omul Ail, Dagur S. Village.
45. Dagur cradle and 3 months baby. 19/7.

On Catalogue Card for duplicate print P.10943.ACH1: Dagur mother holding cradle.
Most of the Dagur of Manchuria live along the Nonni R., where for over 2 1/2 centuries they have been the chief, almost the sole, traders dealing with the Numinchen and other Khingan Tungus tribes.

On Folder for P.10942.ACH1 - P.10943.ACH1: Two photographs of a Dagur cradle taken at Omul-ail, a Dagur settlement south of Hailar. The Dagur cradle is very much like the Numinchen, which I believe to derive from the former. The bulk of the Dagur population of Manchuira lives along the Nonni river, where for over two and a half centuries they have been the chief, almost the sole, traders dealing with the Numinchen and other Khingan Tungus tribes.
