Most had earthen houses with flat rooves made of dirt and straw. In the summer, people would sleep on the roof to stay cool and it just counted as another part of their house. It was against the law not to have a railing/latice work around the roof for safety. If a house fell down and killed an inhabitant, the builder of the house was tracked down and stoned to death for his bad craftsmanship.
