pre-historic period


During the pre-historic period was a time where many homes were built for safety rather than style. The tools used to build these homes were items that were found such as stone or wood. During this time, underground homes or caves were very common and these were the first kind of shelter offered for the human race. Furniture artifact was also created with wood and stone. Animals and plant forms were used as blankets. A famous monument that is still standing today known as stonehenge is an example of an ancient burial ground that resembles a famous form of architecture that was hand built. Pattern and design was used with weaving blankets, baskets, rugs and clothing. Below are pictures of these ancient artifacts.

Peer review: I thought Haley Hofman explained the pre-historic period very well and included all the details such as how people's main focus was on shelter and food and describes how people lived in a community type of place where everyone worked together to obtain food and shelter. she also explained how design and color were used to define religion or loyalty. lastly she listed the types of shelter and homes people lived in. for example she used caves as one of the main types homes.
