| From the Guidebook: |
In a village, the roundhouse
served as the center of ceremonial and social life. Constructed
in 1974, the Chaw se' roundhouse continues this tradition.
With its door facing the east, towards the rising sun,
four large oaks are the focal point of this sixty-foot-in-diameter
structure. Today ceremonial roundhouses are the most significant
architectural manifestation of the continuing Mistook
spiritual heritage.
