Cause and EffectCause Effect

The Maidu Indians built two kinds of shelters. In winter they had a big, rounded earthen lodge with a hole in the top for smoke from fires. The floor and the first few feet of the walls were snuggled into the ground. The roof was covered with a thick layer of earth. In summer, the Maidu built open-air shelters. They cut branches to support the roof, which was made of sticks, grass, or dirt.
