Bag

According to the old Museum ledger, Ian M. Mackinnon presented Frank Burnett with this collection of Inuit objects. They were said to have been collected during his years traveling to the Coppermine area, c. 1921-24.

The bag is made of seven pieces of caribou skin and stitched together with sinew. Four long narrow pieces of skin are stitched together to form the rounded bottom and sides of the bag. Three thin bands are sewn around the opening of the bag.
