yeehhouse"In constructing a Kato house a circular excavation about two feet deep was prepared, and in it at the corners of a square were erected four forked posts, the front pair being a little higher than the other, so that the roof would have a slight pitch to the rear. House timbers were generally obtained among the drift brought down by freshets, and were used without preparation by cutting or shaping. Sometimes they were necessarily carried long distances. One plate timber extended across the rear, another across the front, and these two beams supported rafters, across which were laid rough slabs split with elk-horn wedge and stone hammer from pine or spruce logs. Then several layers of pine- or spruce-bark were applied, and sometimes a final covering of earth. In erecting the very sloping walls, poles were leaned against the edge of the roof with their base inside the excavation, an arrangement that resulted in a structure approaching the frustrum of a cone, in spite of the square roof. The roof was in fact so small that it was of much less importance in determining the final shape of the house than was the circularity of the base. The apertures between the poles were stuffed with bunches of long grass, and slabs of wood and bark were set up. Finally the excavated earth was thrown up against the walls. An opening in the roof served to carry off smoke, and the doorway was a narrow opening in front from ground to roof. As many as three families occupied one of these exceedingly rude little hovels, all cooking at the same fire; and on occasion twenty people could assemble in one of them." (Curtis v.14, p.5-6)
"The Kato dwelling was erected over a circular excavation about two feet deep. The framework consisted of four forked posts set at the corners of a square inside the pit, two transverse plate-timbers, rafters sloping from front to rear, and wall poles sloping from the edge of the pit to the sides of the roof. The covering of the roof and walls was slabs split from pine or spruce logs, and the excavated earth was heaped up around the base of the walls." (Curtis, p.183)
