The book explores the Middle Pacific Period in the Gulf of Georgia, focusing on the Locarno Beach Phase and the prehistoric shell midden site 45WH55. It highlights a transition from foraging to collecting strategies, revealing a complex settlement pattern that defies traditional categorizations of residential and seasonal sites. The analysis of diverse artifact clusters suggests distinct activity areas, including a pit-house, indicating semi-permanent habitation in resource-rich locations rather than a simple dichotomy of site types.
