The Te-ke-nâh-gun is a board upon one side of which a sort of basket is fastened or woven with thongs of skin or strips of cloth. In this the babe is placed and the mother carries it on her back. In the wigwam the tekenâgun is often suspended by a cord to the lodge-poles and the mother swings her babe in it.
