Synopsis

Keatley Creek is a world heritage quality site with unusually large housepits, good preservation, clear architectural features and evidence for complex socioeconomic organization. Work done here has been at the center of theoretical and methodological advances in archaeological studies of complex hunter/gatherers. The Pithouses of Keatley Creek was originally published by Harcourt Brace and Company in 1997. This second edition was re-published by SFU Arch Press in September, 2005.
