A thought!
The Prehistoric architecture serve us a good start in the development of the human ways.It is a complex development, that started in a simple origin in the primitive efforts of the ancient people in the early ages.
In that time, there are no advance materials hat they can use to build houses and structures. So the people in the past thought of something they can use to make their houses. It is because they want to protect themselves from the weather/ wild beast or animals and human enemies.
In that particular time, mud bricks,wattle&daub and tents were revolutionized. The combination of mud, sand and water is eventually became mud bricks. There are two types of it. Adobe and cob. Adobe is use for houses while cob is use for fire proof. On the other hand, tents are use by shepherds. Hay and hut also became popular during that time.
During Paleolithic time many have been developed. Like for example HUT-Terra Amata, Venus-figures.In the continuous changes that have been occur the Neolithic is age have began. In this time many things was discovered. One of this is Jargon. Under jargon are Monolith, Dolmen or cromlech and the circle stones. Monoliths is one up-right stone,dolmen is two up-right stones and cromlech is three up-right stones. Another is the tumuli. One of the examples of this is Burial mounds and Nur hugs. Lake dwellings also appeared in this age.
With the creative thinking of our ancestor through dolmens pyramid was created. They also used Tumuli for tombs, mud bricks for plaster and lake houses for bridges.
The prehistoric architecture has truly improve in a great degree. Because of this, our creativity is really proven. It only started through using simple things that we don't expect to be so efficient made a major impact of the world, because of the stepping stone of architecture.
This is just a proof that that all things in this world has it's own worth. No matter it seems to be, still we need to value it.
