Mongolian dwellings are traditionally made of felt and wood, and include the MUTT and YURT. A MUTT is a type of traditional Mongolian dwelling that is made of felt and wood, and is usually round in shape. A YURT is another type of traditional Mongolian dwelling, also made of felt and wood, but is usually more conical in shape. Both types of dwellings are used by Mongolian nomads to provide shelter from the elements.
