I saw a documentary about some african tribes and they had built an entire village out of these huts, what kind of materials do they use to build them?

they are made out of cowdung or any other type of dung,mud and water.they make it into a pasty mixture.they put up skeleton structure of the hut using sticks tied to gether bysome rope then they sort of plaster the mixture onto that stick structure.after it dries there u have ur hut.

Made from 'thatch' . Palm fronds and walls maybe of a mix of dirt and cow dung . Also bamboo to re-inforce the walls . Works well, low maintenance,
