Answer: They carried their belongings on travois (small sleds).

Explanation: The nomadic Native Americans carried their belongings across the Plains on travois (small sleds). They did not have means of transport and for this reason they made long trips with this type of transportation. Their belongings, as well as the packages that could carry food, were transported with them in their backpacks.
