pile dwelling
A pile dwelling is a type of building or structure that is constructed on piles (long, sturdy pieces of timber or steel) driven into the soil or a body of water. This method of construction is typically used in regions where the ground is marshy, prone to flooding, or generally unstable. It ensures the stability and safety of the structure and provides protection against certain environmental factors. Pile dwellings are common in many parts of the world and many are preserved as cultural heritage sites.
