Traditionally, burden baskets were originally used in everyday life for gathering wild foods and harvesting crops like corn. Large burden baskets were also used for food storage and have been used for generations. Burden baskets are also an integral part of Apache history being used in their rituals and ceremonies. The burden baskets are created in various sizes. They are very labor intensive to weave so today they are usually made in small sizes of about 2 to 4 inches in diameter to be hung by a door or used for home decorating. It is only for very special occasions that baskets of 12\" or larger are made. Larger baskets are exceptionally rare and large baskets that were actually used in a ceremony are all but unattainable. This Apache basket is a cultural treasure.
