Apache women carrying firewood in burden baskets.
Burden baskets are generally woven in a twined technique using cottonwood or willow, then finished with leather straps and tin cone tinklers. The burden basket was used by the Apache women for carrying; either when moving from camp to camp, gathering firewood, or returning from a trip to the trading post. The basket was worn on the back with the tump line across the forehead to bear the weight of the burden.
