Navaho Village

     The three houses in this village show two of the different methods used by the Navajo in building their homes. One of the hogans is constructed of pine logs laid horizontally in a circular criss-cross and in such a way that the hogan resembles a beehive. It is covered all over with a mixture of adobe clay. The other two houses represent the later method of building, one still used by the Navajos. In these, pine timbers are first set in the ground horizontally in a circle. The roof is then built onto this in much the same way as the earlier more simple hogan. An outdoor oven for baking bread can also be seen in the Navajo village.
