Longhouses are Native American homes used by the Iroquois tribes . They are built similarly to wigwams,built by the Algonquian tribes, with pole frames and elm bark covering. The main difference is that longhouses are much, much larger than wigwams.As the Iroquois were farming people who lived in permanent villages and the longhouses were strong and lasted for long period,they built this type of houses.
