	Dwellings
		When you consider that the dwelling was constructed out of what was available at the time and influenced by the climate in which they live(d), the differences in dwellings can be many.
		To remain in one spot is to dwell, and we use dwellings as residences.
		The conical dwellings were made from a framework of tree poles bound together with vine stalks and covered with either brush, grass or tule.

		However, It should be noted that some of the ancient civilizations, the dwellings of the Anasazis, for example, were quite intricate in structure and accommodations.
		It is theorized that the Anasazi eventually abandoned their cliffside dwellings due to drought and population explosion.
		The Pueblos are descendants of the Anasazi who built great cliff dwellings up to five stories high and these structures are believed to be the basis for the later modeled adobes.

		In the treeless north and west of the county, the earliest dwellings in all probability were entirely of crude dry stone construction and may have looked very like the later beehive huts or clochans of the Dingle penninsula.
		Dwellings in the rest of the county where woods and forests were more common, may have been built of timber and wattle.
		Concurrent with the evolution and development of the country house of the nobility and the lesser landed gentry, the humbler dwellings of the tenant farmers and artisans continue to be built much on the lines of the evolved dwellings of the sixteenth century as discussed previously, except now these were built outside ringed fortifications.

	Standards Within Dwellings
		These apply to dwellings which are occupied by persons who do not form a single household and include bedsits, flatlets, hostels, lodging houses, bed and breakfast establishments and houses divided into self-contained flats.
		All these dwellings complied with the Building Regulations, and were either nationally approved house types, or were being funded by, and presumably satisfactory for the Housing Corporation.
		Planning powers can, however, be properly used to secure adequate living conditions in dwellings insofar as these are affected by sunlight, daylight, outlook, privacy and noise, and these factors can impinge upon the internal layout of dwellings, especially dwellings in multiple occupation.

	American Indian Dwellings
		This selection from Edward S. Curtis's 1920's photographs of the North American Indian reflects Curtis's appreciation for the variety of dwellings designed by the Indians as well as his affection for a complex culture that was being inexorably destroyed.
		The Curtis collection is one of the largest photographic archives ever produced by a single artist and probably the most profound representation of pure Indian culture ever compiled.
		The complex skill needed to build such edifices and the dedication to harmony with nature are readily apparent from these excellent photos in which Curtis captures the spirit of a dying culture.

	Department of Land Conservation and Development Farmland Dwellings
		A farm dwelling is a house or manufactured home located on a farm (or ranch) and occupied by a farmer - a person who is ´principally engaged´ in activities such as planting crops or raising livestock.
		The key to distinguishing farm dwellings from other types lies in the phrase ´customarily provided.´ For example, a farm dwelling would not customarily be built on a dry five-acre parcel that provides just enough forage for one cow.
		The procedures and standards for farm dwellings thus vary somewhat from one county to another.

	THE CONQUEST OF BREAD: CHAPTER VI -- Dwellings
		But, however tumble-down and squalid your dwelling may be, there is always a landlord who can evict you.
		But if the people themsevles, organized by streets, districts, and parishes, undertake to move the inhabitants of the slums into the half-empty dwellings of the middle classes, the trifling inconveniences, the little inequalities will be easily tided over.
		Rarely has appeal been made to the good instincts of the masses--only as a last resort, to save the sinking ship in times of revolution--but never has such an appeal been made in vain; the heroism, the self-devotion of the toiler has never failed to respond to it.
