I am not sure if the indigenous people of Hokkaido Ainu enjoyed tobacco or not bu well-designed tobacco cases were also displayed in the showcases. Other tools used in their actual life were also in the showcases and helped us imagine their real life.
As I mentioned in previous post, Ainu people did not manufacture iron and they made the most of the metal nails of the wooden boxes drifted in the ocean and reached the coast of Hokkaido.
So most of their tools were made of natural materials such as reed and balks. This cradle is also made of reed and the stems of plants. Getting over cold winters must be so tough even for them.
