An Oglala Lakota tipi, 1891. A tipi or tepee (/ ˈ t iː p i / TEE-pee) is a conical lodge tent that is distinguished from other conical tents by the smoke flaps at the top of the structure, and historically made of animal hides or pelts or, in more recent generations, of canvas stretched on a framework of wooden poles.
The general pattern of a tipi (also "tepee") ring is an east-facing entrance, where there are no stones, and a heavily anchored side with extra stones for protection against prevailing winds, often on the northwestern side of the ring. Hearths found in the center of tipi rings suggest a winter encampment.

The tupiq [1] (dual: tupiik, [2] plural: tupiit, [3] Inuktitut syllabics: ᑐᐱᖅ [4]) is a traditional Inuit tent made from seal [5] or caribou [6] skin. An Inuk was required to kill five to ten ugjuk [1] [7] (bearded seals) to make a sealskin tent. When a man went hunting he would bring a small tent made out of five ugjuit.
Smoke flap ventilation is used on tipi (teepee') housing of the Native America Plains Indians by tradition, both historically and on modern ceremonial tipis. The tipi smoke flap vent is attached in a continuous piece to the cured hides that cover the exterior of the large teepee housing structure.
