Site in Chile

Yaghan hut reproduction at Wulaia Bay near the Dome Middens. The hut is made from local Nothofagus trees; prehistorically kelp and animal hides were also used for weatherproofing. At the Wulaia Bay Dome Middens, this type of hut was used in the center of each ring midden as a habitation by the Yaghans.
