"The Archaeology of the Yakima Valley" by Harlan I. Smith is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work presents the results of archaeological investigations conducted in the Yakima Valley, detailing various sites and artifacts from the region to enhance the understanding of its prehistoric inhabitants. The text is likely to appeal to readers interested in anthropology, archaeology, and Native American history, as it delves into the lives and practices of the Sahaptian-speaking peoples who once thrived there. The beginning of "The Archaeology of the Yakima Valley" outlines the author's archaeological work completed in 1903 across several locations in the Yakima Valley. Smith describes excavations yielding human remains, burial sites, and tools, positioning these findings within the context of the cultural practices of the area's native inhabitants. He emphasizes the lack of definitive dating for the artifacts found, stating some graves are attributed to modern Indians, while others predate European arrival. The introduction sets the stage for a comprehensive survey of the valley's archaeological significance, showcasing its importance as a historical source for understanding the life ways of its early peoples.
