A house in its most general sense is a human erected structure, consisting of enclosing walls and having a roof. A house generally has at least one entrance, usually in the form of a door or a portal, and may have any number of windows.

Houses have been used as living quarters for humans since prehistoric times, and construction materials, styles and methods of construction have varied wildly over time.

Early European houses were mere single roomed shacks without windows in which entire families and their cattle lived, keeping the house and eachother ralatively warm during winter.
