There are both French and English traditions of vertical log construction 
(post in earth), so it may depend on the heritage of the builders.

Subject: Vertical log construction


Išve recorded a 3-pen log structure in a remote part of SE Utah.  It
probably dates between 1885-1905 and includes one horizontal log pen, and 2
pens built of logs placed vertically and apparently erected after the
horizontal room.  There is speculation that the vertical log technique
indicates Hispanic presence.  Does anyone have sources that would confirm or
refute this claim?
