I also suspect it has to do with the old adage It takes a village to raise a child. In the woodland environment, it was easy and quick to construct this kind of structure and more convenient to simply add onto it instead of erecting a separate building as children married and became parents themselves. <br /><br />Thanks for dropping by!

The Iroquois longhouse is considerably different in that it's much larger and houses a number of families instead of just one, as the wigewa did. They're both built of the same kinds of materials, however, and have a framework made of stripped saplings. And, of course, the items used by both tribes were essentially the same. In the area we're writing about, you had a lot of Seneca mixed in with the Lenape, so you would have seen both kinds of structures.J. M.
