The adobe bricks are made of a mixture of clay, sand, water, and organic materials such as straw. However, the adobe bricks are not taken through the kiln. Instead, they are left to dry under the scorching sun. Adobe bricks are also known to have the advantage of providing insulation to the interior of the house while providing strength.

The importance of traditional building materials can never be underestimated since they played a crucial role in the construction of strong houses. Some of the building materials used included stones, wood, bricks, clay, among others. This is due to the fact that they are readily available, strong, and can withstand all kinds of weather. However, the building materials are still a source of inspiration to come up with eco-friendly houses that are environmentally sustainable even today due to their long-lasting nature in ancient houses.
