The text description might be inaccurate. Perhaps the description is meant merely as a way of identifying the photo, so this could be stated and the description shortened, or are the text (and possible errors) from the Paul Niedieck book? Possible inaccuracies: the description says there are adult women seated in the photo. Is this conclusion based on those figures wearing scarves and cloaks, or does the historical source say they are female? Facial and bone structures, and lack of facial tattoos, as well as postures might suggest the seated figures were male. Also, the statement that the roof is tarped with something other than hides might be wrong, as the front edges do show overlapping lines which suggest the consistency of well worked animal skins.
