 Some of the individuals in this photo also appear in E034, Arb371, and Arb372. E034, however, was also identified by Stirling under the caption "Mixed Natives at Manokwari." It is not clear whether one caption is incorrect or if the same individuals were both at Soeroei, Japen and Manokwari. Arb371 and Arb372, which were not annotated by Stirling, have been classified under the "Manokwari" location/subject heading.
