The difference between tents built by Indians and adobe houses

The tents built by Indians are obviously different from adobe houses.

Tents built by Indians are usually made of animal skins, canvas or woven fabrics, and are a kind of movable temporary residence. Tents are very convenient to build and dismantle, very portable, and suitable for Indians who live on nomadism. In addition, all the women in the tribe are responsible for building, dismantling and storing tents.

Adobe house is a common traditional building material, which is usually made of soil, straw and lime, and then dried or fired. Although it is also a common way of building houses, compared with tents built by Indians, adobe houses need more preparation work and construction skills, and are not easy to move and have poor portability after completion.

Generally speaking, the main differences between Indian tents and adobe houses lie in building materials, construction methods, portability and users. Tents are suitable for nomadic people, and they are easy to build and dismantle, while adobe houses are common fixed residences.
