An Apache doll cradle, often called a cradleboard or papoose carrier, is a traditional Native American artifact created by Apache communities, primarily in the southwestern United States (such as Arizona and New Mexico). These items blend functionality with cultural significance, serving both as toys for children and miniature replicas of full-sized cradleboards used to carry and protect infants. They are highly valued in Native American art collections for their craftsmanship and historical insight into Apache life.
