The early Florida houses, according to Le IMoyne's illustra- tions published by De Bry, were either cir- cular with dome-like roof, or oblong with rounded roof like thoseofSecotanin North Carolina, as shown in John White's fig- ures. The frame was of poles; the sides and roof were covered with bark, or the latter was .sometimesthatched. TheChip- pewa usually constructed a conical or hem- ispherical framework of poles, covered with bark. Formerly caves and rock shelters were used in some sections as abodes, and in the Pueblo region houses were formerly constructed in natural recesses or shelters in the cliffs, whence the designation diff-dn'elJings. Similar habitations are still in use to some extent by theTarahumareof Chihuahua, Mexico. Cavate houses with several rooms were also hewn in thesidesof softvolcanic cliffs; so numerous are these in Verde valley, Ari- zona, and the Jemez plateau, New JNIex- ico, that for miles the cliff face is honey- combed with them. As a rule the women were the builders of the houses where wood was the structural material, but the men assisted with the heavier work. In the Southern states it was a common custom to erect mounds as foundations for w]}, hogan, and iglu, have come into use to a greater or less extent by English-speak- ing people.
