That was the building material that was available to them.
im guessing your sod is 16inches by 24inches. so that's 1.33ft by 2ft that's a total of around 2440 pieces. if you sod is 16ftby24ft then you would need 16 to 17 pieces
They lived in earthloge villages. the oven-shaped earth houses were made with heavy posts and supported by horizontal timbers, against each timber poles or hewn logs were leaned. This timber work was covered with sod, and in time grew together and formed a solid structure, rain proof, cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Sod huts, also known as sod houses, are primarily made of blocks of sod, which consist of grass and soil held together by the roots. These structures were commonly built by settlers on the Great Plains in North America, where timber was scarce. The thick layers of sod provided excellent insulation against extreme temperatures. The roofs were often made of wooden beams covered with more sod or thatch for added protection.
The pioneers made Sod Homes. Use a reliable source next time, because some things on here are full of crap.
Indians mostly live in India, but they also live in many places around the world.
Sod is a kind of grass. Farmers used to live in sod houses. When you want a fast lawn you can use sod instead of seed. The farm west of town is a sod farm. It provides grass for the rest of the city.
It depends on where you are in the world. Grass or sod homes are made from blocks of turf cut out of the ground. The grass ties the sod together so it doesn't crumble when it gets wet. Grass huts are typically made by tying bundles of grass onto a framework of wood. The overlaps make a barrier against most rain.
Igloos, tents and turf huts represent the historic type of home of Greenlandic peoples. Bones, driftwood and furs also show up as building materials. Sod, stone and wood tend to predominate from the eighteenth century onward.
Yes, some Indigenous peoples of the Arctic, often referred to as Eskimos (though this term is considered outdated and potentially offensive), built summer homes using sod. These structures, known as "sod houses" or "sod huts," were constructed by stacking layers of grass and soil, providing insulation and protection from the elements. However, it's important to note that the term "Eskimo" encompasses various groups with distinct cultures and building techniques, so not all of them used sod for summer homes.
