Sustainable Mediterranean Construction
Sustainable Mediterranean Construction
From the Paleolithic Age, the construction of buried and semi-buried buildings constituted the easy solution for housing and protection from the forces of nature. Despite the fact that in antiquity, buried and semi-buried houses were created by troglodytes, today, these semi-buried residences are home to common people who enjoy the use of cultural and technological advances to simplify their lives.
