sod, (mud), for the pueblo
To build houses
sod :)
Sod houses were built where there were no trees for logs or lumber. A typical sod house was about four meters wide by five and a half meters long. The sod house could have one room or two. The floor is hard packed clay earth. Stack the strips of sod on top of each other like bricks for the walls. The roof is usually flat without a tilt cover the roof with poles or sticks (ice cream sticks) and pile sod on top. Use oiled paper for the windows. Put it outside and the sun will dry it into a hard clay texture.
Sod buster is a term that refers to early settlers in the United States who were involved in breaking and cultivating the land for agriculture, particularly on the Great Plains. They often had to use sod to build their homes and structures due to a lack of other building materials.

Sod is a kind of grass. Farmers used to live in sod houses. When you want a fast lawn you can use sod instead of seed. The farm west of town is a sod farm. It provides grass for the rest of the city.

Inuit did not use ice. They used sod and wooden beams that they cut. The typical traditional inuit 'house' used sod, wood, rocks, and whatever else they wanted to put into it. But now they live in regular houses.
Sod. I go to Connection A. too. ;)
Use a tiller to loosen the soil. Rake soil smooth. Unroll sod onto raked soil. Tamp in place with the flat of the rake head. Sprinkle topsoil along the seams between rolls of sod. Use a lawn roller to insure sod is firmly in contact with soil. Water new sod.
