More general information here: http://www.inuvialuitlivinghistory.ca/item_types/55: The MacFarlane collection includes models of tents with wooden tent poles and caribou skin covers. Poles of full-size tents were typically about 4 metres in length, and were fastened together at the top and spread out to form a cone. Caribou skins were usually used as tent cover. Tents were used for shelter in summer, and were attached to the entrances of winter sod house dwellings and used for cooking over open fires.
