These homes are made from dirt and cow manure.  The floors are usually dirt pressed so hard it resembles concrete

There are several types of homes that we see, but these seem to be quite prevalent
and easily constructed.

Just one room homes

Curtains in the doorways are used to keep flying bugs out and fresh air in

Notice the cute decrative hanging plant
This is another type of housing mostly constructed of concrete

There are many homes made of brick.  The shed on the side is the kitchen where all the cooking is done outside on charcoal stoves

Rows of dirt homes
