Did early settlers live in log houses or teepees?

Answer 1

Generally, the first settlers lived in houses made with boards. The first houses were built inside palisades made from upright logs. These were basically forts. The houses and vegetable gardens were inside the palisades and somewhat safe from Indian attack.

The log cabin would not come until about 60 years later when conditions became safe to live in a dwelling away from a palisade.

Early settlers did not live in teepees. They housed Indians.
