Centuries of Anthropological Exploration

Founded in 1871, with roots dating back to 1837, the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland is the world's longest-established scholarly association, dedicated to the furtherance of anthropology in its broadest and most inclusive sense.

With a distinguished tradition of scholarship that stretches over 150 years, the Institute remains committed to promoting the public understanding of anthropology, and to further the contribution of anthropology to public affairs, culture, education and society.

A Visual Chronicle of People, Arts and Cultures

The Institute's archive contains nearly one million pieces of unique content, including research data, papers, fieldwork, drawings and photographs, and a wealth of previously uncatalogued material.

The archive includes a 150,000-image library of ethnographic photographs dating back to the 1860s. Those images were captured by anthropologists, ethnologists and ethnographic photographers, and include historic prints, lantern slides, drawings and paintings, illustrating diverse world cultures.

The collections include illustrations, sketches, maps, fieldwork, notes and correspondence from Bronislaw Malinowski, William Buller Fagg, Rosemary Harris, Charles Gabriel Seligman, Edward Horace Man, Alfred Cort Haddon, Lady Vera Delves Broughton, Thomas Henry Huxley, Audrey Richards, Northcote W. Thomas, Robert Sutherland Rattray, and Peter Morton Williams.
