| Summary |
For thousands of years, First Nations people from the high, cold country of Australia stayed warm and dry by making and wearing Possum Skin Cloaks. These beautifully designed cloaks were important to the survival of the first peoples and the designs and artwork on each cloak helped connect them to clan and Country. |
