Often, the center of the tree, which dies and no longer offers as much resistance to decay, rots and over time forms a hollow that can serve as shelter for animals. Cedar stands also serve as a winter refuge for herds of deer. Its wood, fragrant, light, easily splittable, and resistant to decay, is also highly valued for making fences, shingles, docks, foundation pieces, beams, and other elements that must resist decay. Indigenous peoples used it as ceremonial incense, a therapeutic remedy, and a structural material for making their bark canoes.
