They wove branches and wattle—wooden lattice—between the posts and filled the enclosure with logs, branches, soil and clay.
他们把树枝和板条编织在桩子上作为木质承重格栅，然后用原木、树枝、泥巴和陶土将其填满。
Houses were rapidly erected; most of them consisted of posts stuck in the ground, interwoven with twigs of wattle trees, and then daubed over with mud.
房子很快建了起来，大多数的房子是把柱子插入土地，用金合欢树的树枝编连，外面再涂满泥。

Then, in a district called the Portiuncula, they found a ruined church, Santa Maria degli Angeli, and they built wattle-and-daub cells around it.
