Seminole Indians traditionally slept in structures called chickees, which are open-sided, raised platforms made of wooden frames and thatched roofs of palm leaves. These homes were designed to provide ventilation in the humid Florida climate and were elevated to protect against flooding and pests. Inside, they used mats made from natural fibers for sleeping. This style of living reflected their adaptation to the environment and their semi-nomadic lifestyle.
