The traditional shelter of the Cherokee tribe is called a "wattle and daub" house, also known as a "asi" in the Cherokee language. These structures were typically made from a framework of wooden poles woven with branches and then covered with a mixture of mud, clay, and grass. The design helped provide insulation and protection from the elements. Additionally, the Cherokee also built circular structures called "sweat lodges" for ceremonial and cleansing purposes.
