Les estructures es veuen influenciades per l'estil d'Aceh. Van ser utilitzades com a cases comunals per la tribu Sakuddei abans que fossin obligats a abandonar la seva tradicional forma de vida entre els anys 1950 i 1960. Des de llavors, s'han fet alguns intents per tornar a restablir les antigues zones d'assentament. Les «umes comunals» són rectangulars amb una terrassa a cada extrem. Poden arribar a mesurar tres-cents metres quadrats de superfície. Construïdes sobre pilots, tradicionalment no tenen finestres. L'interior està separat en diferents espais amb portes per interconnectar-los. Els pobles es construïen al costat del riu i es componien d'una o més umes comunals i cases unifamiliars d'una planta conegudes com a lalep. Als pobles hi vivien fins a tres-centes persones i els pobles més grans es dividien en sectors en utilitzar l'estructura social de . S'utilitza la mateix paraula uma per a designar aquest clan, i la seva casa. Els rusuk eren habitatges per a les vídues i solters similars a la casa comunal de la família, però sense altar. L'uma era el centre de la vida social, religiosa i política i és aquí on cada membre del poble de la societat igualitària Mentawai es reunia per debatre sobre assumptes que afectaven a tota la comunitat. Igual que molts indonesis, els Mentawaians creuen en una ànima que abandona el cos després de la mort per esdevenir un fantasma. Per protegir-se d'aquests esperits, es col·locaven tòtems al voltant de les entrades del poble que formen alhora una tanca pel bestiar i una fortificació. (ca)

Built on piles, they traditional have no windows. The insides are separated into different dwelling spaces by partition which usually have inter-connecting doors. Villages are built alongside river banks and are made up of one or more communal Uma longhouses and single-storey family houses known as lalep. Villages housed up to 300 people and the larger villages were divided into sections along patrilineal clans of families with their own uma. Rusuk were dwellings for widows and bachelors which are similar to the family longhouse but without an altar. The uma is the centre of social, religious, and political life and it is here where every village member of egalitarian Mentawai society is able to contribute meetings about matters affecting the community. Like many Indonesians, Mentawaians believe in a separable soul that leaves the body upon death becoming a ghost. To protect themselves from these spirits, fetish sticks are placed by the entrances of the log wall that surrounds and fortifies the village and forms a stockade for cattle. (en)
