  Humans have been nomadic longer than they've been static. You can take a nomad out of the wilderness, but you can't take the nomad out of the boy or whatever. Before these, we had covered wagons. Before that...

    Before that, gypsy wagons. I like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transhumance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transhumance ; that way you only have to move the four- and two-legged members of the household, and the roof, walls, and stuff can remain in place in each seasonal-appropriate stop.

  You don't even have to go that far back, living in RVs is nothing new. "Tiny home" is just a rebranding that removes connotation of a "trailer", but it's essentially the same.

    "Tiny home" probably also carries the implication of trendy design, more expensive materials, etc. You're not wrong but a lot of tiny home designs probably optimize space usage in ways that mobile home designs don't necessarily.
