The Hopi built their homes, known as pueblos, using adobe, a mixture of clay, straw, and water that hardens into a sturdy material. These multi-story structures were often constructed on mesas or elevated areas for protection and to take advantage of natural light. The homes featured flat roofs and small windows, and were designed to accommodate extended families, reflecting their communal lifestyle. The architecture was not only functional but also deeply connected to their cultural and spiritual beliefs.
