Tsi'del'del

Tŝideldel takes its Tsilhqot'in name, "red stone," from a reddish rock outcrop in the Chilcotin country. The surrounding plateau is part of the Tsilhqot'in homeland, a landscape of forests, grasslands, lakes, and rivers. Obsidian used for arrowheads and other tools moved through the people's trade networks. By the late eighteenth century, European goods also reached the interior through commerce on the Pacific coast.
