Is #10 a building technique, or a specific place?
Some of these are disappearing because there is no need for them. You don't need to live in a house made of mud, reeds, or grass because we have concrete. People can now have electricity in many places. Things like #6 and #7 are outdated. #7 looks like a burial chamber from 5,000 years ago, not a dwelling for the 21st century. |
