∙ 6y agoThese two types served the purpose of being a permanent home in a community located close to hunting and agricultural tasks. Other similar structures served as sweat lodges and council chambers
All the buildings were made young tees bent to shape covered with woven mats of bark and grasses
The advantages and purposes were several:
- the sweat lodges (like a steam bath) were used for treating diseases and injury
- the council chamber was for the elders to meet
- the wigwams and longhouses were a place to cook and sleep
- men and women could perform there tasks like tool and clothing manufacture in comfort
- the building served as a warm place to live in th cold weather
- they also allowed the community to be together for singing and story telling
