They made adobe bricks from mud or clay mixed with straw, sun baked them so that they'd harden, and stacked them up. When They hit the top of a story, they'd make the roof by laying logs across the top, covering those with hay, straw, and brush, then covering that with adobe or clay. the roof of that story would become the floor of the next story up. These adobe homes, sometimes called "Pueblos", were usually one to seven stories high. few windows, with none on the bottom story. The main entryway was a hole on the roof. The Pueblo Indians sometimes covered the windows with adobe bricks if the weather was too cold. Sometimes they covered windows with "Selenite", the clear form of the rock called "Gypsum".

The Pueblo people used special clay made of mud and straw called adobe that protected them from hear, rain, and wind. They made adobe bricks to build their houses. They had little windows and the doors were on the top of the Pueblo which can only be accessed by ladder. At night, when everyone was in the Pueblo, they would pull the ladders up so invaders were not able to come in.
