Tracing of a petroglyph of two human figures in a canoe lancing fish
Date: 1888
Petroglyph tracings D: Canoes #13. 5 negatives and 6 positives. Marion Robertson's Rock Drawings of the Micmac Indians interpret this petroglyph as "lancing fish… A big fish story suggestive of the tale of Glooscap and Kitpooseagunow who put to sea in a stone canoe, speared a whale, tossed it ashore, split it from snout to tail and each roasted and ate his half in one sitting."
