A photorealistic interior depiction of daily life inside a Mississippian-era home at Cahokia. The scene takes place inside a rectangular wooden house with wattle-and-daub walls, a packed earth floor, and a central hearth providing warmth and light. Family members engage in everyday activities: preparing food, grinding maize, weaving baskets, shaping pottery, and caring for children. Clay vessels, woven mats, stone tools, and stored food supplies are arranged naturally around the interior space. Light enters softly through a doorway and smoke hole in the roof, creating a warm, lived-in atmosphere. People wear simple garments made of woven fibers and animal skins appropriate for daily life. The mood emphasizes domestic routine, craftsmanship, and community rather than monumentality. See more
