Hogan facts
- Other traditional structures include the summer shelter, the underground home, and the sweat house
- A hogan can be round, cone-shaped, multi-sided, or square; with or without internal posts; timber or stone walls and packed with earth in varying amounts or a bark roof for a summer house, with the door facing east to welcome the rising sun for good wealth and fortune
- Today, while some older hogans are now still used as dwellings and others are maintained for ceremonial purposes, new hogans are rarely intended as family dwellings
- Traditional structured hogans are also considered pioneers of energy efficient homes
- Using packed mud against the entire wood structure, the home was kept cool by natural air ventilation and water sprinkled on the dirt ground inside
- During the winter, the fireplace kept the inside warm for a long period of time and well into the night
- This concept is called thermal mass
