A mat made of reeds sewn together

Tule reeds are a versatile, durable, and portable plant source often gathered in late summer or early fall while the reeds are still green. This plant source is commonly used for weaving material; the tule reeds are sewn together using different construction methods and decorative elements. For years the Cayuse have used tule mats for shelter, for a surface to sleep on, and also for food storage.
