has gloss | eng: A barabara (also called an ulax) was the traditional home or dwelling used by the Aleuts, the indigenous people of the Aleutian Islands. It lay partially underground, and most of the house was excavated from the dirt so as to withstand the high forces of wind in the Aleutian chain of islands. Barabaras are no longer used, as present-day Aleuts live in modern houses and apartment buildings. |
