Kickapoo Homes
Q: My 10 yr old son has to do a research paper on the
Kickapoo Indian homes (from long ago.) I'm having trouble finding info on
just the homes. Thanks in advance for the help.

A: The Kickapoos lived in dome-shaped buildings called
wickiups. Here is a picture of a Kickapoo wickiup:

Even today, the Kickapoos in Mexico live in wickiups,
but most American Kickapoos
live in modern houses and apartment buildings now,
just like you.
Hope that helps!
