(8) qʷac̓iʔ (PIT HOUSE)
1900 Quail Lane
qʷac̓iʔ were traditionally used during the winter months, utilizing geothermal energy, the warmth of the mother earth, to keep the people safe. They were well kept, as they were more than a resting place; they were also a space to share stories and celebrate. When spring arrived, the syilx people would travel with portable summer tule mat dwellings / tukʷta̓nilx.
