Eskimo Fishing Shelters: Traditional Arctic Structures
Eskimo fishing shelters, also known as igloos or temporary snow houses, are traditional structures used by Inuit and other indigenous peoples in the Arctic regions for fishing and survival during harsh winters. These shelters are typically built from blocks of compacted snow, providing excellent insulation against the extreme cold. In Pakistan, local cultures have their own unique adaptations to environmental challenges, such as using mud-brick houses in rural areas to cope with heat and seasonal changes. While Eskimo shelters focus on cold climates, Pakistani traditions emphasize community gatherings and agricultural practices, reflecting diverse cultural solutions to nature\“s demands.
