As Aboriginal people did not have access to modern day heating and cooling technology, they used some traditional techniques to keep warm and cool. One was was rock shelters which provided them with protection from rain and wind. In extremely cold and wet weather conditions, tools were made from wood bone and stone to make cloaks and foot covers. The people used grease from porcupine, possum, muttonbird, seal and penguin to coat their skin as a waterproof layer and for warmth against the extreme weather conditions.
