First Nations built igloos primarily as temporary shelters for hunting and traveling in Arctic regions, particularly by the Inuit. These structures were designed to provide insulation against extreme cold and harsh weather conditions, utilizing snow’s insulating properties. Igloos could be easily constructed using available materials, and their dome shape effectively retained heat, making them practical for survival in a challenging environment.
