Ts'lhimexósem - Pit House

About this site

This restoration site is located on land that was formerly used for agriculture. This particular station overlooks a pit house analog that was constructed for educational purposes.

Pit houses were traditionally built using wood and soil and were commonly used as winter homes. Because they are semi-submerged in the ground, they benefit from geothermal insulation, helping to retain heat and protect occupants from harsh winter weather and the elements.
