Answer:

Hey!

The traces can be seen lingering on even in far-flung states like Assam. Before the British, the kings of Assam built expensive and complicated construction while the locals survived in huts made from mud-plastered bamboo walls and thatched roofs. Once the British arrived, they assessed the environment, and then designed and constructed comfortable, aesthetically pleasing homes referred to thereafter as Assam type house.

hope it will be helpful ✌️

Answer:

Houses in Assam are built on stilts because the state receives abundant rainfall due to which there are chances of floods. In case of flood the water might get inside the houses, if the houses are built on ground level, so in order to avoid flooding of houses, houses are built on stilts and above the ground level.
