Part 3/9:
The construction crew faced the essential challenge of fortifying the caves. A hole in the hill wouldn't suffice; they had to ensure the entire structure was secure to avoid any catastrophic collapses. The team employed a mixture of water, earth, and straw to line the walls of these caves, serving both aesthetic and practical purposes. This unique material acted as insulation, reminiscent of a cozy blanket, providing warmth and stability to the farmhouses nestled within the mountain.
