Don't know anything about Mozambique traditional building techniques, but shouldn't there be straw embedded in the mud/clay? From the photo it doesn't seem like it.

    The mud normally has some fine fiber mixed in it, but yeah it also surprised me a bit when I first saw it in person. The walls typically end up a bit thicker though covering the wood entirely.
