It's 10,000 BC, what did your house look like? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I am curious what people lived in way back around 10,000 B.C.

Did some live in the open? Others live in Caves, huts?

Read D. Adams "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". That will explain how and why your ancestors ended up here.

What is now my house was possibly a sappling(s), or perhaps an assortment of other animals and plants which later died and fertilized the ground for the trees to grow.

It depends on where on Earth you are asking about.

Here in the Americas, people probably lived much the way North American Plaines Indians lived before the horse, simple tents. In Europe, around that time, some people were living in Earth covered, log structures that were half pits. Elsewhere, people lived under the sky or temporary shelters or shelters made from less durable materials than wood.

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

According to what I found on the net, 20-15,000 years ago the houses (huts? tents?) are made of hide, bones and wood.
It goes between the big house (36m X 18m: Kostienki on the Don) and the small tent a la american indian.
So 10,000 years ago, I guess there was some improvement.
Real agriculture appears 6000 BC.

This makes me conclude that the comparisson with american natives (Apaches, Sioux more than Mayans) is not too bad.
