Description

Photograph of interior of Indian dug-out home on Warner's Ranch, ca.1901. Large branches shore up the walls. Earth from outside is kept from leaking in by a layer of finer twigs and brush. A thicker branch in the right foreground probably acts as a structural member to hold up the ceiling. The floor is dirt.
