Description: "The Columbia-Fraser Plateau is perhaps most well-known for its robust history of archaeological inquiry into past houses, residences, and domiciles. Numerous excavations were conducted between the 1950s and 1980s as a part of the mitigation process associated with dam building and other development. Many of those excavations centered on examining the remains of past houses and residential sites. Since then, the focus of archaeological inquiry has shifted and splintered across the region. This volume aims to re-kindle and re-vitalize those conversations with new data, new analyses, and contemporary methodological and theoretical approaches"--Page 4 of cover.
