Abstract

The practical utensils made from birch bark and their folk background belong to long-established cultural phenomenon created by hunting peoples living in the forest areas of northern China. In order to adapt to unique regional resources, lifestyles and climatic conditions, they have taken a large number of locally grown birch groves to create a large number of uniquely shaped, portable and functional birch bark appliances, including birch bark boats, sewing kit and matchboxes, which cover almost all the life of the hunting nation. The beautiful shape and decoration of birch bark products explain the old-growth forest hunting people’s understanding of life and the demand for beauty, and are an important part of the unique regional culture of the Oroqen people. For the Oroqen people without written records, birch bark culture carries more important cultural information.
