Temporary structures and a migratory lifestyle are NOT characteristics of a civilization. Civilizations typically feature permanent housing, monuments, educational or religious institutions, a system of writing, and artistic development, all of which support a stable and organized society. Temporary living arrangements would suggest a nomadic way of life, which is contrary to the established nature of a civilization.
