Keatley Creek: housepits, food storage, and social interpretation

Reviewed community and place names are preserved where supported; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

The first volume examines dating and deposit formation before interpreting household activities. The second volume compares food use, architecture and social organization; inequality models remain interpretations rather than transparent records of offices.

Household archaeology and social-model context Late Holocene housepit occupations; feature-specific dates and research histories distinguished Housepit floors, plant and animal remains, stone assemblages and depositional studies Lillooet, British Columbia, Canada (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, cave-entrance, private compound or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, hunting, gathering, farming, fishing, water-rights or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting, fishing or travel permission is implied.

Connexions entre cuencas, plateaux, lacs, fleuves et régions voisines

Lillooet, British Columbia, Canada is a modern orientation, not an ancient capital or boundary. House-size variation and storage support social questions, not an unquestioned census of chiefs or proof of one Plateau state.

Organisation politique et échelle communautaire

House-size variation and storage support social questions, not an unquestioned census of chiefs or proof of one Plateau state. Keatley Creek house-size, hierarchy and abandonment models are interpretations; charcoal dates, reused floors and later digital editions require separate chronologies.

Transformation ultérieure, patrimoine vivant et réception moderne

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Archaeological horizons cannot assign every resident a language; St’át’imc living heritage has authority beyond archaeological models. Events after 1800 CE and modern research, reconstruction and stewardship are dated separately from the main historical context.

Site formation The first volume examines dating and deposit formation before interpreting household activities.

Séquence historique

Uma cronologia breve e documentada

Ces repères servent d'orientation et ne constituent pas une histoire complète.

  1. Winter-house contexts

    Successive housepit deposits support household-scale study, not one occupation date for every structure.

    [S1]

  2. Floors and reuse

    Building and depositional histories complicate comparisons between houses.

    [S1]

  3. Formation and social syntheses

    The first two volumes distinguish evidence formation from socioeconomic reconstruction.

    [S2]

  4. Excavation record

    The third volume publishes the sampled excavation and artifact evidence.
