History of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander textiles

Smaller Pandanus Mat purchased in 1980 from Aboriginal Traditional Art in Perth, Western Australia. They list origin as Ramangining. (Code RA 07  OO A1) The first pandanus mat I purchased was by Elsie? Bulung (tribal group: Miljing) from Yathalaluata (sp)  in Central Arnhem Land. I bought at Aboriginal Traditional Arts in Perth.  scan the label
