For the Nenets who are still nomadic, their lands and reindeer herds remain vitally important to their collective identity. The reindeer is their home, food, warmth and transportation means. Lassoo is crafted from reindeer tendons; tools and sledge parts from the bone. The covers of the conical-shaped tents called Choom are also made from reindeer hide and mounted on heavy poles.
