Is "timestamp" a reserved word in CQL?

Hi all,

I find in the doc,
http://www.datastax.com/documentation/cql/3.1/cql/cql_reference/keywords_r.html
, keyword "timestamp" is not reserved. However, when I create a table with
a column named timestamp, it is changed to "timestamp" which is in double
quotation marks automatically.

Is "timestamp" a reserved word in CQL? I'm using Cassandra 2.0.6.

Thanks,
Philo Yang

It's not reserved but can have a specific meaning in some context.
