What did the lakota tribe use for shelter?

Answer 1

The kind of houses that the Blackfoot tribe live in is a teepee. A teepee is made of three to four main poles and about 20 other poles for support. For the cover of the teepee it took as few as 14 and as many as 42 buffalo hides sewn together with sinew. They had a hole in the top for the smoke to get out of, and their door was on the east to shelter for wind.

Answer 2

Buffalo-hide tepees is what the Blackfoot Confederacy Indians (or Natives) lived in. They used wood and tied them together for the form of it, then used the skins of buffalo to cover it. This had minimum protection against very heavy winds, but when it's raining or snowing, with not too heavy winds, this tepee will protect right enough to survive in. There were no windows, so at night they made a hearth and there was quite enough heat to survive a winter.

Answer 3

The Blackfoot Indians used buffalo hides to build teepees for their shelters. They made them so that they were easy to set up and break down since they were on the move often.

Answer 4

they lived in wigwams, also pronounced as wikkups. they didn't live in tepees, but possibly longhouses, houses made for multiple families made of bark.
