Vernacular and Earthen Architecture: Conservation and Sustainability

A peer-reviewed conference proceedings volume from the SOSTierra 2017 conference, edited by Camilla Mileto and others, covering vernacular and earthen architecture across the Mediterranean and beyond with significant Moroccan content. The volume includes Gil-Piqueras, Rodríguez-Navarro, and Pérez Vila's chapter on the El Khorbat igherm in the Ferkla oasis, which is among the more careful comparative typological studies of southern Moroccan ksour and igherman in English.

The broader volume situates Moroccan kasbah, ksar, and igherm architecture within the wider field of Mediterranean and global vernacular earthen heritage, providing comparative reference points for the southern Moroccan corpus that are otherwise difficult to assemble.
