Acting as a conduit of memory and legacy for successive generations of inhabitants, roundhouses straddled the divide between house and memorial. The exceptionally well preserved Late Iron Age settlement at Broxmouth in southeast Scotland demonstrates the potential of biographical approaches in understanding the central role that roundhouses played in fashioning the identity of successive households, and the role of objects in constructing genealogical narratives. -

Native American Settlement to 1969
29 Context: Native American Settlement to 1969 Francisco Patencio outside the roundhouse, c. 1940. Source: Palm Springs Historical Society. FINAL DRAFT – FOR CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP 30 CONTEXT: NATIVE AMERICAN SETTLEMENT TO 196923 The earliest inhabitants of the Coachella Valley are the Native people known ethnohistorically as the Cahuilla Indians. The Cahuilla territory includes the areas from the San Jacinto Mountains, the San Gorgonia Pass, and the desert regions reaching east to the Colorado River. The Cahuilla language is part of the Takic branch of the Uto-Aztecan language family and all the Cahuilla groups speak a mutually intelligible despite different dialects. The Cahuilla group that inhabited the Palm Springs area are known as the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. The Cahuilla name for the area that is now Palm Springs is Sec-he, “boiling water,” named for the hot springs located in what is currently the center of the Palm Springs business district. The springs have always provided clean water, bathing, and a connection to the spiritual world, and were used for ceremonial and healing purposes.24 The Cahuilla people refer to themselves as ‘ivi’lyu’atum and are ethnographically divided into two patrilineal moieties: the Wildcats and the Coyotes. Each moiety was further divided into clans which are made up of lineages. Lineages had their own territory and hunting rights within a larger clan territory. There are a number of lineages in the Palm Springs area, which each have religious and political autonomy. Prior to European contact, Cahuilla communities established summer settlements in the palm-lined mountain canyons around the Coachella valley; oral histories and archaeological evidence indicates that they settled in the Tahquitz Canyon at least 5,000 years ago.25 The Cahuilla moved each winter to thatched shelters clustered around the natural mineral hot springs on the valley floor. -

The natural mathematical abilities of humans have advanced civilizations. These abilities have been demonstrated in cultural heritage, especially traditional houses, which display evidence of an intuitive mathematics ability. Tribes around the world have built traditional houses with unique styles. The present study involved the collection of data from documentation, observation, and interview. The observations of several traditional buildings in Indonesia were based on camera images, aerial camera images, and documentation techniques. We first analyzed the images of some sample of the traditional houses in Indonesia using projective geometry and simple house theory and then formulated the definitions of building numbers and projective coordinates. The sample of the traditional houses is divided into two categories which are stilt houses and nonstilt house. The present article presents 7 types of simple houses, 21 building numbers, and 9 projective coordinates. -

A Reinterpretation of the Evidence from Late Bronze Age–Early Iron Age Southern England
LEO WEBLEY USING AND ABANDONING ROUNDHOUSES: A REINTERPRETATION OF THE EVIDENCE FROM LATE BRONZE AGE–EARLY IRON AGE SOUTHERN ENGLAND Summary. It has recently been demonstrated that a number of roundhouses of the early first millennium BC in southern England show a concentration of finds in the southern half of the building. It has thus been argued that this area was used for domestic activities such as food preparation, an idea which has formed the basis for discussion of later prehistoric ‘cosmologies’. However, reconsideration of the evidence suggests that this finds patterning does not relate to the everyday use of the buildings, being more likely to derive from a particular set of house abandonment practices. Furthermore, evidence can be identified for the location of domestic activities within contemporary roundhouses that appears to contradict the established model. introduction Substantial timber-built roundhouses are a characteristic feature of the early first millennium BC in southern England. It has recently been noted that several of these houses show a marked concentration of artefacts in their right-hand side, viewed when facing out of the building (normally the southern side, as most roundhouses face east or south-east). As a result, it has been argued that this area of the house was used for everyday activities such as food preparation. This has formed the basis of a general model for domestic space in Iron Age Britain which has gained wide acceptance in recent years. Critical examination of the theory has been limited, however. This paper reassesses the evidence from the houses in question, and puts forward an alternative interpretation of the manner in which these buildings were used and subsequently abandoned. -

Structures Within Our Iron Age Area Are Built to Match the Original Excavated Footprint of Each Site
All structures within our Iron Age area are built to match the original excavated footprint of each site. This includes post size and spacing. The materials used to construct each house are sourced to match those that could have been found in the landscape, local to the excavation, at the time the original structure was built, and construction techniques are based on appropriate available technology. LITTLE WOODBURY ROUNDHOUSE Aim: To explore the engineering and construction of a major two-ring Wessex house and to record the material quantities required to build a house of this scale. This building is based on an excavation from just outside Salisbury of a 14.5 metre diameter Roundhouse. In our recent re-thatching (2018/19) 7 tonnes of thatch were used for the roof, requiring an estimated 10 acres of land to produce this historic yield. The oak used in the frame and walls weighs 12 tons, the rafters are ash and elder weighing 4 tons with 1.5 tons of hazel in the wattle and 20 tons of daub. MOEL Y GERDDI ROUNDHOUSE Aim: To explore the engineering and construction of a smaller two-ring roundhouse. To explore the use of a back door, the running of a fire in a sunken fireplace in the floor and monitor burning under the hearth. This house is based on excavations from Harlech in North Wales. In 2009 we noticed the main posts were all showing signs of decay and experimented to see if they could be replaced in situ rather than rebuild the house. Each post was removed and a new post (with charred end to prevent rotting) slotted into place. -

roundhouses what are they? Roundhouses are cylindrical - a common building shape that has popped up independently in many cultures and in many parts of the world throughout history. A circle would have been the most popular building footprint on the planet at one time - think mud huts, yurts, tipis (ish), igloos, wigwams (OK, they're both domes), as well as hogans, crannogs, trulli, pallozas, rondavels, clochans and brochs. They're not so widespread in the modern world, as buildings need to be square to fit closely together in today's high-density urban areas. The reason they became so popular is possibly that a curved wall is relatively stable and self-supporting, whereas a linear wall is not, and can be wobbly Tony Wrench's famous 'that roundhouse' in until it's fixed to something. Pembrokeshire – see thatroundhouse.info. They can be made from most materials. The most popular construction method currently in the UK is have a conventional roof where the tips of the a timber frame (round or square timber) with rafters meet in the middle. walling infill. Loadbearing walls without a timber Because reciprocal roofs usually have quite a flat frame can also be used, using straw-bales (which pitch, they are often turfed. A turf roof looks right have to be bent to shape - tricky), cob, stone or on a roundhouse, somehow. However there are rammed earth. There are more options with infill - plenty of examples of higher-pitched shingle or all the above materials can be used, as well as thatched roofs. A reciprocal frame roof places wattle & daub, cordwood or hempcrete.
