A portable home is a type of dwelling that can be easily moved from one location to another. Two common examples are the TEPEE and the YURT. A TEPEE is a traditional Native American dwelling made of animal skins or birch bark and supported by wooden poles. A YURT is a circular tent-like structure traditionally used by nomadic people in Central Asia, made of felt or other fabrics and supported by a lattice of wood or bamboo. Both of these dwellings are lightweight and easy to transport, making them ideal for those who need a temporary or mobile home.
