B. Groups of makeshift homes in shantytowns

Explanation:

The ''Hoovervilles'' were groups of makeshift homes in shantytowns. They were made under the initiative of President Hoover, which is why they got that name. The reason why they were made was because of the Great Depression. The country was in a very bad situation, the inflation rates big, lot of companies closed down, and lot of people were left without job and without their homes. This led to the poverty rates and homelessness rates to skyrocket, so the ''Hoovervilles'' were supposed to be a temporary solution until the situation stabilizes.

both eastern and western early north american cultures were known for building wigwams and longhouses.

wigwams, also called wetus, were small houses of 8-10 feet tall, made of wooden frames covered with woven mats and sheets that were used by algonquian indians. similarly,   longhouses were also used by algonquian and the iroquois tribes, and they were built as well with pole frames and elm bark covering. however, the main difference between wigwams and longhouses is that the latter was much larger than the former, with 200 feet long, 20 feet wide, and 20 feet high with inner raised platforms used for sleeping space.
