Teepee is a style of home made popular by the Northern Plains tribes. Originally made from buffalo skins and poles about 15feet. Today they are commercialized up to 40 feet tall and using creams to put it up. The symbol of a home is somewhere where you feel comfortable and you have a place to rest. Some tribal peoples have been able to put up the Teepee in less than 10 minutes. Made to travel and pack up easily to move to better hunting grounds for the winter or summer. 

This will be part of a tribal housing series that we at Chrisjohn Designs will be doing.
