The people of the far north lived in igloos because these structures were better suited to their cold, harsh environment. Igloos, made from snow blocks, provided effective insulation and could retain heat from body warmth, while adobes, made from mud and clay, were ill-suited for the extreme cold and snow. Additionally, the availability of materials in the Arctic region made igloos a practical choice for shelter.
