From Wikipedia

A jige (Korean: 지게) is a traditional Korean pack frame used to carry large quantities of heavy materials. It has been attested to for centuries, and was used in agricultural communities to facilitate the transportation of large quantities of materials such as compost, grain, wood, and grass. Its design varied depending on the region. They are easy to make and have been used extensively due to the mountainous terrain of Korea. The tool was widely used even during the 1950–1953 Korean War, during which Americans called the tool A-frame.
