adobe
Most of the areas in the Southwest are not heavily forested, and most of the plant life consists of prairie grasses and scrub brush. So the native tribes used the material at hand, fashioning clay and straw into adobe bricks.
The first Native Americans to build their homes out of adobe were the Pueblo people. They were a group of indigenous cultures located in the Southwestern United States, primarily in present-day New Mexico and Arizona. The Pueblo people used adobe, a mixture of clay, sand, and water, to construct their famous multi-story dwellings, known as pueblos.
The Zuni people still use the Zuni River and locally-sourced clay to fashion pottery for food and water storage. They decorate this pottery with home-made organic dyes. These same dyes are used for their woven items of clothing. That same clay is used to make adobe, a type of brick with which houses are built. As their language is not related to any other Native American language, they had to rely on the human resource of intelligence to create their language. They used gravity (and still do) to irrigate the arid desert region in which they live.
