  • Bamboo is an important building material in many parts of the world. Nowhere are the builders more skilled than among the Dorze in the Rift Valley Mountains in Southern Ethiopia. They have learned to split it and weave it into fantastic beehive houses which will last their occupants a whole lifetime. We have recorded the complete process of harvesting, preparing and building these amazing houses.

      A house built of straw. So unhealthy to have an open fire inside. Smoke covers the inside of the house and the people's lungs. One mistake and the fire inside could burn the house down. ("Burning the house down") Ed Heide, is that the song you want to sing?

    • @interestedineverything7251
      @interestedineverything7251 5 років тому +13

      @@rhigel2269 It is not straw on the inside: it is bamboo, which is stronger and tougher than steel. Many countries from the Orient and Far East use bamboo for scaffolding, even on their giant skyscrapers, because it is strong, light, bendable, and sustainable. Rhi, did you happen to notice that the entire village was built of houses in the exact same manner? If fire was so easily spread, I doubt that there would be any village at all. Just as they know how to use everything from the forest to their advantage, I'm sure they also know the proper way to handle fire. Also, the "straw" on the outside, which was used for insulation, was completely covered with tightly woven strands of bamboo that came from the inside of the cane. It was then covered with "shingles" of bamboo bark. They are so saturated with moisture that they are almost impossible to use to light a fire. Also, just the actual amount of humidity in the air keeps the entire structure from drying out. When my did was in Viet Nam, every letter home he asked us to send him more socks, because his could never dry out after washing because of the humidity and monsoons. They just rotted away. His clothes did also. When I lived in the Philippines, I gave up trying to use and umbrella and a raincoat. The wind would always flip my umbrella inside out and the rain hit the ground so hard , it bounced up into my raincoat, and the wind blew it up my sleeves and down the neck of my coat. Also, it was so hot that the raincoat made me perspire profusely, so staying dray was pretty much a lost cause. A lot of people in the equatorial regions of the planet live in bamboo houses. :-)

    Remarkably beautiful. This shows how tribles & indigenous people use there skill to make something extra ordinary by using locally available materials. Bamboo, being a highly versatile natural material is widely used by nomadics in many parts of the world. In North-East India, apart from shelters, people make furniture, utensils, toys & so many other useful items out of bamboo. Thanks for uploading this beautiful video.

You think they need to heat things? but if the situation arises, its known as....a fire....something that a lot of modern countries still utilize for heating their buildings. You know...burning fuel...for heat. Like..wood. Plumbing? Why? They aren't in a city of MILLIONS of people. Indoor plumbing would be redundant. There are plenty of modern living situations in the US for example that still utilize these things called outhouses....fancy invention, shitting in a hole. Still applicable to this day where you live in a secluded area and can't get access to septic tank services. Which are literally the same thing as an outhouse in essence.
      Mud? What mud? There are people who pay TOP dollar to have traditional housing constructed. For example in the UK, you'd be paying ridiculously high prices for a daub house made of clay. not to mention the existence of modern roofing that utilizes traditional thatching...something that lasts a ridiculously long time.
      Low IQ mud life? I can guarantee you, if given the same resources, you couldn't do, any better. You'd be busy moaning and complaining. This isn't low IQ. This is literally the skills and intelligence that allowed our species to thrive. The only reason you exist is because of he IQ of people like these, your ancestors.
