Compared to the Algonquian longhouse reconstruction seen at Jamestown:
YOu ave to wonder if the reconstruction is made to look especially shabby, ie authentic. I mean we don't have any actual photos of Powhatan architecture, right? These are American reconstructions based on 500 year old European descriptions. I wonder if we had color photography in 1607, if the longhouse would have looked even more like the yurt?longhouse reconstruction phot of the interior:
