Cruzville again. This is house appears to have a square floor plan and pyramid-shaped roof. The horizontal log construction, chinked and probably originally plastered with adobe, is called fuerte, whereas poles stuck vertically into the ground to form a wall which would then be chinked and plastered with adobe, is called jacal.
