>digging trenches in rock-hard frozen soil
Nope, didn't happen. They used tents. inb4 "they made the trenches before the ground froze" -- they usually didn't and usually couldn't as they had to advance, move around, even in winter time; they couldn't magically dig trenches in locations before they arrived at those locations, they had to actually be in the location first in order to dig there. And you're not digging into rock-hard frozen soil.

>wood cabins
That came much later. Before that we Native Europeans simply lived in the forests (which covered nearly all of Europe) and used the materials made readily available (no cutting down trees) to us by the forest to construct the equivalent of tents of the time, using branches and moss and such; nothing more complicated than that. Constructions similar to this one (incomplete in this video): https://youtu.be/jf-l24Ot-vg?t=1394
