Not all Aboriginal groups used dilly bags - it is a word taken from dilli, used by a Queensland language group to describe a roughly conical basket carried by a tump line around the forehead. It would have been carried mostly by women and used to hold fruits, vegetables and small game. Other groups used baskets of grass fibre or bark, some utilised skin bags and some used coolamoms (called by different names depending on the language group).
