How has Thatch Roofing changed over the years?

Thatch roofing has existed since our ancestors realized the need for a roof over a house. Our ancestors beside discovering fire was also capable of using Thatch through different natural materials like dry leaves, reed, straw, and tied them together to be used as a roofing solution.

The most common material used was the water reed, which was and still is considered to be the durable material for thatch roofing. Thatch roofing is still used today because of its vintage and rustic look.
