"Longhouses" are an English word that refer to a large number of different cultural traditions that made large houses. They were all permanent dwellings.

In North America the Iroquois and Wendat (Huron) in the east made longhouse buildings out of boards and bark and many different people in the Pacific Northwest made cedar "longhouses". They are unrelated.

In South America, the Tucano people in the northwestern Amazon basin built them.

People also built them in Neolithic Europe, the Germanic North-sea cattle farmers, and medieval Devon, Dartmoor, Scotland, Wales, western France, Viking mead-halls, Korea, Taiwan, Borneo, Sumatra, Vietnam , and Nepal among other places.
