Detailed explanation-1: -Many Arctic Indian shelters were built with mud and other materials from the earth, while many Southwest Indian shelters were made of stone. Many Arctic Indians made their homes in wigwams, while many Southwest Indians made their homes in plank houses with bark roofs. The Northwest Indian diet depended heavily on fish.
