History

Much of the time shelter was similar to a wigwam. Sticks laid to make a circular hut which was then covered with hides or materials such as brush, cattails, hay, etc. Tents were simply a more portable and temporary version. Winter encampments had better structures. This was where people spent the cold weather and were built to withstand it. You could find pit houses.  Caves big enough to shelter a number of people were relatively rare. More often was the rock shelter. This had South facing exposure and an overhang of rock. One excavated French site showed that logs were piled against the rock and then covered. The covering was hides as many anchor stores were found along where the logs were. The inside was covered with seaweed. Communal living was common. You could pool resources and labor to build it and having multiple people in the same shelter provided additional heat.  <span>Remember that people didn't have the central heated, storm proof housing we enjoy. They were more acclimatized to cold weather and what we today think of as harsh conditions.</span>

3. Which of the following best describes the similarities on reforms between Catherine the Great
Lostsunrise [7]

The correct answer is A) Both embraced Western ideas and worked to bring Russia fully into European cultural and political life.

The statement that best describes the similarities in reforms between Catherine the Great and Peter the Great is "Both embraced Western ideas and worked to bring Russia fully into European cultural and political life."

These rulers of Russia were interested in maintaining close ties and relationships with western European nations. They received the influence of other European rulers and customs from other parts of the continent.

Both Peter and Catherine considered that a good education was a good investment and although were dictators -Emperors in that time- they ruled to expand Russia's territory. However, both failed in improving the living condition of their subjects that remained poor.
