Honestly, they didn't. The Iroquois (or as they call themselves, Haudenosaunee) lived in longhouses that could be built up to 100 feet long and 25 feet high.
The Nez Perce used twigs, bark, logs, and thatch to build their longhouses
The Haudenosaunee, also known as the Iroquois, traditionally lived in longhouses made of wooden frames covered with bark. These longhouses could accommodate multiple families, reflecting their matrilineal social structure and communal living. The interior was divided into sections, with each family having its own space, and they often featured a central hearth for cooking and warmth. Additionally, the Haudenosaunee sometimes built smaller structures for seasonal use, especially during hunting or farming activities.
