Trousers: Part of Quilled And Beaded Caribou Skin SuitE209572-1

Alan Zuboff, Linda Wynne, and Ruth Demmert made the following comments during the Tlingit Recovering Voices Community Research Visit, March 13-March 24, 2017. The group agrees that the trousers are made of caribou hide. It was likely obtained through trade because Tlingits didn't normally hunt caribou because the animals were not local. The individual stitching of the quills cannot be seen, which suggests the design work was woven on a loom and not directly onto the garment.
