Houses in the desert region were generally dome-shaped or rectangular. The Cahuilla called their dome houses a kish, pronounced like the word quiche. Some were as large as 15 or 20 feet across. The house was made from bending willow branches covered with palm fronds, tule or whatever plant material was available
Today, Cahuilla families live in modern houses and apartment buildings.In the past, most Cahuilla people lived in brush houses called kish. Kish are small round or cone-shaped houses made of a wooden frame covered with reeds and brush. These are very simple houses and Cahuilla people really only used them to sleep in. When they were resting, socializing, or working on crafts, Cahuilla people sat outside-- it was rarely cold or rainy in the climate where they lived.
