Humpy

A humpy, also known as a gunyah, wurley, wurly, wurlie, mia-mia, wiltija, is a small, temporary shelter, traditionally used by Australian Aboriginal people. These impermanent dwellings, made of branches and bark, are sometimes called a lean-to, since they often rely on a standing tree for support.
