    The Southwest region is made up of California, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Utah, and Texas. Part of the Southwest region is along the Pacific ocean. The Southwest is very dry, desert region. Water was very hard to come by so it was used very carefully. There were not many grazing animals, so instead farming was popular for food production. Southwest Native Americans lived in Adobe homes. These houses had many levels in them and were made from clay and straw bricks. They were cemented together with adobe. Adobe homes housed one family, but the homes were connected together so many families lived next door to each other. These homes were good in warm dry climates for tribes that did not move around to hunt and gather. Southwest Native Americans hunted mammoths until they became extinct. There were not a lot of animals in the desert so the Native Americans didn't often hunt for food. Instead, they were farmers. One of the most important foods they grew was maize (corn). They grew 24 different types of corn. They also grew beans, squash, melons, pumpkins and fruit. For meat, they often ate wild turkey.
