I mean, yeah? Early homo (erectus, habilis) were known for building things with natural materials, so it's not inconcievable that they built huts and had decks for their huts.

Yeah. I definitely said "multi-story" didn't I? Curse my selective amnesia.

I guess it's completely inconceivable that our tool wielding ancestors felled trees and built huts raised from the forest floor. Inconceivable.
