Found artifacts conclusively dated to 6,500 to 7,000 years ago
"The Skeetchestn Indian Band, a First Nation whose traditional territory is located west of Kamloops has had parts of their territory near Cache Creek burned in the massive fire. As a result of sites uncovered by the fire, the search has yielded artifacts conclusively dated to 6,500 to 7,000 years ago and some might be as old as 10,000 years old which are a valuable part of Skeetchestn's cultural heritage."
