-===History===
+The noted poet [[Arariax]], in his cycle of ''Eleven Classical Structures'', speaks of the range of structures inhabited by Ghyllians in the course of a lifetime, beginning at a simple [[Ghyllian reproduction|eggling]] box and progressing ultimately to a tomb. As a whole, the cycle is uneven. The inclusion of three pages devoted to a neighborhood bar (certainly not one of the eleven classical structures by any stretch) is indicative of Arariax' instability and inability to keep on topic without swerving to the topic of drink.

Many editions completely omit the last two lines altogether, although the manuscript held by the [[Monotapute House]] library at [[Bute University]] contains the text as reproduced here.</small>

[[Pziqq trees]] are sometimes used, though their bark is very rough and makes it hard to work with. Grelb, apprish, reguescober, and fibrier are some of the the preferred species of trees to be used for traditional fielding huts.
