The Plains Indians, including tribes such as the Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho, inhabited the Great Plains of North America. They often constructed lodges covered in sod, particularly in the eastern parts of the plains, where grass and soil were abundant. These earth lodges, or "sod houses," were built using layers of grass and dirt, providing insulation and protection from harsh weather conditions. They were typically found in areas with a reliable water source, such as rivers or streams.
