Capanna

A capanna is an Italian word that translates directly to "hut," "cabin," or "shack" in English. It generally refers to a small, simple dwelling, often of rustic construction, intended for temporary or seasonal use. Capanne can be used for a variety of purposes, including providing shelter for shepherds, farmers, or travelers, or serving as storage for tools or equipment. The specific construction and materials used for a capanna will vary depending on the region and available resources, but they are typically made from locally sourced materials such as wood, stone, or reeds. The term often evokes a sense of simplicity and connection to the natural environment. The word is also sometimes used figuratively to describe a very modest or humble abode.
