How are native American longhouses different from wigwams?

A longhouse is technically a wigwam, but a wigwam is not always a longhouse.The term "wigwam" refers to dwellings of any shape that are covered in birch-bark, including longhouses. But wigwams can also be small and cone-shaped, or small and domed.The word wigwam derives from many different Algonquian languages of the north-eastern cultural region: Mi'kmaq wikuom, Mahican wiqâhm, Ojibwe wiigiwaam and so on). All are derived from the respective words for birchbark (for example Ojibwe wiigwaas).So if a dwelling was in the eastern woodlands and was covered in birchbark it was a wigwam, no matter what shape it happened to be.See links below for images:
