The Jumano houses could be buffalo skin tepee or made of
reeds or sticks. The roofs of the houses where flat. In each
household there were 30-40 people living in the house. The
walls where decorated with red, white, and yellow stripes. Each
house is two to three stories tall. The whole family lived in one
small, standard room. The hoses where made of adobe brick. The
Jumano tepees were made of the buffalo hide. The tepees were used
by the Jumanos that didn't stay in the same place for long.

The Jumano lived from the sixteenth through the eighteenth
centuries. The Spanish had settlements throughout Texas, New
Mexico, and Mexico, which caused problems for all the Indians that
live in these areas. The Jumano also lived when the American buffalo
were very common. There were many Native American tribes
throughout the country.

What happened to the Jumanos is still a mystery. The Spanish caused
some battles which may have caused the Jumano population to
decline. The Spanish also brought many European diseases. The
Spanish and the Apache also took over some of the Jumano's land
which left the Jumano to adapt to the south's buffalo supply and what
crops could be grown. The Jumano moved with the other Texas Indian
Tribes.
