Housing in Botswana
Ntld Traditional huts
In Botswana, the traditional huts are mainly for tribes. They are rounded thatched hut made from mud and bricks, plastered with soil and cow poo and with exterior decoration with designs.
Ancient houses
Long ago, when there were a lot of tribes groups, their houses were simple and neat, but needed a lot of work to put it together. They used clay to glue leaves, and thick branches for the roofing.
Modern houses
Nowadays, houses are usually rectangular. They use cement, breeze blocks (a light building brick made from sand mixed with cement) and tiles for roof. Modern houses are more safe and secure. They change the ancient houses to modern houses to keep out natural disasters such as sandstorms, windstorms, storms, etc.
Rondavel
Rondavel is the contemporary traditional huts. They are made from raw materials. Rondavels are also rounded oval shape, similar to the traditional huts. Their walls are made from stones. Sand, soil and cow poo are mixed together to make a traditional floor covering to make it hard and smooth. The roofing is made from tree, as poles.
Different housing between Brunei and Botswana
The housing in Botswana is different in Brunei from the material they use, and the decorations. The material they use in Brunei houses are usually single materials grinds together becoming a mixture that they use rather than mixing it themselves. The material they use in Botswana houses are usually single materials putting it a bit by bit onto the house. The sizes of Botswana housing are way smaller than the houses in Botswana. The Botswana houses are usually in countryside, the Brunei houses can be found anywhere except in forests.
