*The first seminoles that settled in Flordia first made a "Chickee" that is known as now a days as a house.
*They were longyish type of chickee and were two story tall with the headquarters room upstairs.
*The chickee would last up to 10 years and at least every 5 years you could re-patch.
*Chickkes were often built/made out of a wooden format of a piece of the roof and clay mixed with mud to make a strong substiance which cuased the walls to be pretty solid.
