Abstract: Retrospection into the footprints of antiquity, into the life and culture of man and his surrounds has led to intriguing arguments as to the validation of architecture as a reflection of the culture, and architecture as a response to the surrounding physical determinist (2) factors by the most eminent. Architecture, described as a temporal art (6) is subject to continual change due to conscious or unconscious interventions with changing times and needs of the people. This paper attempts to validate the thoughts of the highest minds and also tries to establish a relationship between the evolution of built form as a response to the needs and culture also assess the role of physical determinist (2) factors that shape it over the years. A literary premise is established preceding the analysis of the settlement focusing on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (1) The study being conducted at two levels, both macro and micro level gives an in depth understanding of the fabric at the settlement and the tissue level and validates the essential relationship between man's needs, life and built forms.
