this is a traditional Scottish bow tent frame made from hazel ribs and an ash rigging stick and when put together is one of the strongest tent frames there is,it is said that the first hunter gatherers who came to Scotland 9000 years ago used frames very similar to this covering them with animal skins,through the centuries it has changed very little with the addition of the rigging stick which eliminates the need to tie the ribs together, this addition was probably introduced by the Scottish travelers,from this design the bow top wagon was born
