How To Make A Aboriginal House First you have to find a tree with no other trees around. Next you have to cut a piece of wood from that tree to see if its not rotten next u do a ceremony to ask the tree if we can have it. Then you have to cut all the twigs and branches. Then you rub mud all over the tree trunk so it doesn't burn that much. Then you cut off some of the tree but leave enough so it can live they used a adze to cut down the tree. Then you have to move the tree in a canoe to the village. Next you measure the house. Then you dig a hole as deep as a mans waist. You have to use many strong people to lift the tree into the hole. Then you have to put lots of dirt in that same hole and make it sucure. Then you lay the planks on the side of and tie them with ropes. Then you have to leave the smoke hole their. And thats how you make a house of wood.
