Bone awl.

Before metal awls became available at Fort Union, women from the Northern Plains tribes often relied on bone awls to make holes in thick animal hides. What animal bones did they use? Buffalo, deer, and elk are but a few. To make the largest tepees, women had to stitch together as many as 20 dressed buffalo robes.
