Pictures from Yemen--the place where they do near-skyscrapers out of earth.

Yemen is such an interesting place...
And they can do amazing things with mud walls. :o

The above image was from a PDF link in the indigenous housing thread (http://www.countryplans.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1135060015/4#4)
Great slideshow and that is one of my favorite photos, John. I wish there was more detail about the actual construction.
Ohmygosh, you can actually see green things growing in the picture John posted. I didn't notice any in David Sheen's pictures.
But there were some goats (unless they were hair sheep).
(and I think it was the 4th picture that was of a kiln)
