earth floor
Unfinished building base
An earth floor is a floor made of packed dirt or clay rather than wood, stone, or concrete.
Common in traditional dwellings and rural buildings worldwide, earth floors are compacted and sometimes treated with oils or blood to harden the surface: The old farmhouse still had its original earth floor.
