A dillybag or dilly bag is a traditional Australian Aboriginal bag, generally woven from the fibres of plant species of the ''Pandanus'' genus.. It is used for a variety of food transportation and preparation purposes. ''Dilly'' comes from the Jagera word ''dili'', which refers to both the bag and the plants from which it is made.〔Dixon et al. (2006): p. 184.〕 The dilly bag, otherwise known as yakou, yibali or but but bag, is a bag worn around the neck to hold food like berries, meat, fish etc. The Dilly bag is normally woven out of vines or tough dried grasses and sometimes had feather or animal fur inside the bag to stop small pieces of food falling through holes in the weave. Mainly used by women to gather food but can be used by men to help carry some tools for hunting. Another use for the dilly bag (also named Mukurtu) was as a holder for personal or tribal artifacts. The "Dilly bag" term is also used to describe bags used by non-aboriginal Australians, for example a smaller food bag carried by swagmen along with their swags. The term is also used by Australians to describe similar bags for other purposes. ==See also== * The Politics of Search: Archival Accountability in Aboriginal Australia * ANTHROPOLOGY OF/IN CIRCULATION: The Future of Open Access and Scholarly Societies 〔https://scholarworks.iu.edu/dspace/bitstream/2022/3167/1/Kelty_et_al_2008.pdf〕 * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「dillybag」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
