The adobe is a structure that was made by three tribes (Zuni, Pueblo, and Hopi) that lived in Southwest of America. The adobe is built with sun-dried earth made from sand to make strong brick-like materials, clay, water, sandstone mixture, and organic matter. Gaps were filled with much more mud between the blocks to prevent the wind, rain, and keep out bugs and other unwanted pests. The Adobe building is an example of a cultural landscape.

In some areas, like the Sahel zone, there are large differences in rainfall every year. In the last decades droughts have caused hunger and starvation in many part of the Sahel and Ethiopia.
