Homes and Shelter

The ancient humans built permanent homes for shelter in the winter. Winter homes were Ice Age huts. They were built in teepee style. They built their winter homes out of branches and mammoth bones. They covered their homes with animal skins. These homes were used for many years. They were very careful about how they built them. First they dug holes in the ground, inserted poles into them and tied them tightly together at the point of the teepee. The string was made out of animal guts. Large rocks were put at the bottom on the teepee to hold it in place. A hut found in the Ukraine was big enough to hold an entire tribe. There were several entrances with several rooms, that could hold several fires. In the summer they followed the herds and lived in tents. The tents were sturdy and could be moved from place to place. Their shelters had 4 walls with one window and they used a ladder to crawl down from the roof into the house.These houses were made of sun dried bricks.
