​The areas that are now West Texas and Southwest Texas were home to peoples of the Puebloan culture. The Puebloan culture was marked by settled village life with homes made of adobe, a mix of sun-dried earth and straw. Trees were scarce in the dry southwestern area where these peoples lived, making it difficult to build homes out of wood. However, since there was little rain, the homes lasted many years.
