Just looked up pechkas, same concept as the masonry heaters where the fire and smoke is channeled through a series of passages that burn the gases and store the heat in bricks, stones and adobe
I’ve read about a similar thing, but it’s on a smaller scale, where’s homes in Iran (I think) had wood fire underneath the houses that would heat the floors and they would have a chimney on the opposite side of the house
