Hogan

This is a home the Diné (Navajo) people used to (and some still do) live in. It was made of sticks, branches and dirt with occasionally rocks. The door was an opening to the east because they believed/believe that life comes from the east and death from the west. It was covered up with an old blanket and had an opening like a chimney at the top to let out steam.

Bidziil: come, Gaagii! Doli is waiting for us at the hogan!
