Description:
The interior of a homestead, with a large hut and storage platform to the left [slightly blurred image].
Each small grouping of dwellings was the residence of a man, his wives and unmarried children, and sometimes also sons-in-law with families.
Taken together, these groups of socially related enclosures formed hamlets, a sub-division of the larger canton or tribal sub-group, which had a chief.
