| Description |
English: Depending on where they lived, Arnhem Land people might only move camps two or three times a year. They would spend the dry season (the middle of the calendar year) in lower areas including flood plains and the wet seasons in higher areas such as the escarpment. They built different shelters depending on the time of year. Wet season shelters, such as this one, were more substantial in order to keep the rain out. They were constructed of sheets of paperbark over a wooden frame. Sometimes to while the time away, people would paint designs in ochre on the inside of the shelters. |
