Options:
desert region
snowy region
high rainfall region
forest region in the plains
-The use of mud as plaster and thorny bushes as roofing material suggests that the village is located in an arid or semi-arid region where other construction materials may be scarce.
-Thick walls are also common in desert regions to keep the interiors cool during the day and retain warmth at night. Â
-The use of thorny bushes as roofing material is also a common practice in desert regions as they provide insulation against the harsh sun and heat.
-The village may also have traditional architecture that is adapted to the local climate and environment.
🔴Additional Information:
-Snowy regions would require houses with better insulation and heating systems to keep the interiors warm, and roofs that can withstand heavy snowfall.
-High rainfall regions would require houses with sloping roofs and good drainage systems to prevent waterlogging and leaks.
-Forest regions in the plains would have different types of construction materials and may not require thick walls or thorny bush roofs.
