What is the house of a Native American called?

Answer 1

a communal structure for multiple dwelling and defensive purposes of certain agricultural Indians of the southwestern U.S.: built of adobe or stone, typically many-storied and terraced, the structures were often placed against cliff walls, with entry through the roof by ladder.

It is a Tipi.

Answer:

It depends on which tribe you are discussing. Plains tribes often used a tepee as it was easily moved, others used long houses (around the Great Lakes), hogans were made by the Navajo, wigwams or wickiups were made of a frame covered with brush or mats, igloos (winter) and tents (summer) were made in the Arctic, on the west coast the Haida built wooden houses, in the southwest pueblos were common where people lived in apartment-like structures made from stone, adobe mud, and other local material.

Answer 3

Native Americans used many different kinds of living quarters, and called them by different names.

The portable tent used by the nomadic tribes on the Great Plains has come to be called a teepee (TiPi) or (incorrectly) a wigwam.

A wickiup is a domed single-room dwelling used in the desert southwest and a similar structure used in the northwest was a wigwam.

A hogan is the primary traditional home of the Navajo people.

The Longhouse was used by several Native American tribes, most notably the Iroquois (Haudenosaunee or "People of the Longhouse") who lived in New York and Ontario and included the Five Nations (Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida and Mohawk), but also the Wyandot and Erie tribes, and the Lenni Lenape, who lived from the lower Hudson river, along the Delaware river and on both sides of the Delaware Bay, and the Pamunkey of the Powhattan Confederacy in Virginia
