Bag

Small pouch woven from strips of bark bast in a twisted weave braided. The strips were folded over at the bottom and the twine weave was used at the side the twine weave as a connection. The bark bast strips were woven together at the upper edge. A thinner twisted cord was threaded through the thicker plaited cord. Bags of this type were used to transport and store plant-based foods.
